I've recently written a review of Every Voice (edited by John Howlett), a new selected edition of the poetry of Leonard Clark,. It features a selection of Clark’s poetry from across his life, from some of his earliest poems, through to his best-known work, and some uncollected poems from an unfinished manuscript.
Leonard Clark grew up in Cinderford in the Forest of Dean before moving away as an adult, never to live there again. Nevertheless, the Forest and his relationship with it left a deep impression on him that he would draw upon and form a backdrop to some of his poems.
You can read the full review on the Reading the Forest website.
