Praise and Poems
Beryl Fenton’s first collection is a wrily belated event, for a poet whose work pulses with both qualities. Fenton’s dry-point imagery betrayed her own painting’s surreal intent, as well as its startling richness on occasion. The displacement, Fenton’s inimitable standing back from the most intimate experience, as when she speculated on her late husband’s suit matching the crematory smoke, reveals something else: an unflinching, original voice, typical neither of her generation or any following it.
