My copy
of Catherine Reilly's 'English Poetry of the First World War A Bibliography'
arrived recently - what a
wonderful book – truly a labour of love. It will take me some time to go through it and add to my ever growing list of Female Poets of the First World War.
As Laurence Cotterell says in
the Foreword he wrote for the Bibliography, "I have never before come across a bibliography - a mere
listing one might think - which could be picked up and read from page to page
as if it were a narrative." (p. vi).
It is a truly fascinating book.
REILLY,
