Poems of the Dead and Undead Barnstone Tony
This selection of poems from across the ages brings to life a staggering array of zombies, ghosts, vampires, and devils. The poetic evidence gathered here ranges from ancient Egyptian inscriptions and the Mesopotamian epic Gilgamesh to the Greek bard Homer, and from Shakespeare and Milton and Keats to Emily Dickinson and Edgar Allan Poe. Our culture's current obsession with zombies and vampires is only the latest form of a fascination with crossing the boundary between the living and the dead that has haunted humans since we first began writing.
Eliot and Sylvia Plath to Rita Dove and Billy Collins, from Allen Ginsberg and H. P. Here too are terrifying apparitions from a host of more recent poets, from T. S. Lovecraft to Mick Jagger and Shel Silverstein.
The result is a delightfully entertaining volume of spine-tingling poems for fans of horror and poetry both.
