520 $a"John Kinsella is a major poet for whom poetry is never enough. Pacifist, vegan, ecological campaigner, he argues passionately for the writer to engage with the world. Not since Shelley has there been such radical, ethically driven criticism. The verbal intelligence at work is as acute as the scope is large. An exhilarating constellation of interview, essay, polemic, lecture, memoir, apologia and verse, Activist Poetics will be eagerly read by anyone interested in what writing can do."--Professor John Kerrigan, University of Cambridge.
