Poems on the Underground (set 60)

Thomas Hardy speaks to the past in 'Heredity', whilst echoes of a similar theme appear in Kathleen Jamie's 'The Creel'; and the unnamed yet almost recognised woman who appears in dreams. The full set consists of six posters with the following poems:

• 'The Creel' by Kathleen Jamie
• 'Personal Column' by Basil Bunting
• from 'To Althea, from Prison' by Richard Lovelace
• 'Heredity' by Thomas Hardy
• 'Coltsfoot and Larches' by David Constantine
• 'Belgrade' by Vasko Popa
