The Heart of Things

An Anthology of Memory and Lament

Richard Holloway
The texts collected here are interspersed with autobiographical commentary in which the former Bishop of Edinburgh reflects on the poets who have guided him most, including Housman, Cavafy and MacNeice. The book is divided into six sections focusing on those times when we feel emotions such as melancholy and regret for which poets who ‘know best how to listen and teach us to listen’ can offer particular solace and wisdom.
