Has it been a battle to the death between two poets? Michael Glover has had a lifelong love-hate relationship with Ezra Pound, and has for many years wrestled with the idea of a book. In the 1980s he met Olga Rudge, Pound’s companion, and corresponded with their daughter, Mary von Rachewiltz, the Italian translator of his Cantos - this book has indeed taken years to bring to publication.

In his new collection, the poet Michael Glover, in a suite of forty poems, not only writ...
