On John Fowles' poetry
Review
The book
NB Many of the poems are set in Greece. Here's an extract from one of them:
what are we doing here
wasting time by the ochre road
under the pepper trees
swilling cheap wine...
waiting and boozing
at frantic noon
nobody knows when night will come
but thinkers think it could be soon...
barbarians Inglesoi men of the north
only half living in all this light:
watching the bus we should have caught
draw for eternity out of our sight
(from Aboulia)
