Summary: Outstanding anthology of poetry drawn from "Common Ground".
Comment: Field Days is an outstanding anthology of poetry drawn from the pages of Common Ground. These paeans of lyrical celebration are arranged alphabetically and represent the combined works of more than ninety poets, both ancient and modern. From John Keats, William Blake, and Walt Whitman to Sylvia Plath, Robert Graves, and Seamus Heaney, here are poems that inspire, celebrate and document the complex and timeless aspects of human experience amidst pastoral landscapes and agricultural settings. Brockhampton: The land was too wet for plowing; yet it is done./Even the stones of the ridges lie sulky and brown./The roads are a slide of mud. The wet sky/Is blank as the chink of the hawk's perfect eye./A blink before the dark comes down/Drops the peregrine sun./The land glows like an awkward face./Broken posts, by which sheep graze/Shine pale as growing wood./Above, the last crow's wings/Cannot frighten from my blood/The stubborn light of things. Alison Brackenbury.
