Read Complete Poems: Muriel Spark Storyline:
In her foreword toAll The Poems(2003) Muriel Spark wrote, "€˜Although most of my life has been devoted to fiction, I have always thought of myself as a poet. I do not write "€œpoetic"€ prose, but feel that my outlook on life and my perceptions of events are those of a poet."€™ Including previously uncollected work, this new edition demonstrates her ear for the rightness of a line and her eye for the telling detail, her command of poetic forms and her ability to rise to the different challenges of freer verse. Spark"€™s poems are witty, idiosyncratic and haunting, transforming the familiar into glittering moments of strangeness, revealing the dark - and light - music beneath the mundane.Pages of Complete Poems: Muriel Spark :
