Ralph
Hodgson was already a brilliant graphic artist and an innovator
in the field of Victorian children s comics when, in the early 1900s, he
began producing poetry imbued with a spiritual passion for the beauty
of creation and the mystery of existence. Naturally drawn to animals,
particularly birds and dogs, he was one of the first major poets
oľ
the
last century to highlight the threat posed to nature by mankind s greed.
His work, according to Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet Philip
Levine,
challenges us to see with more clarity the people and creatures
on the margins of our world . Admired by T.S. Eliot, John Berryman,
Stephen Spender and e.e. cummings, his work has continued to draw
praise from more contemporary writers such as Robert
Nye,
Martin
Seymour-Smith and Studs Terkel.
In writing this first-ever biography of Hodgson, John Harding has been
able to draw on a wealth of previously unseen documents from libraries
and collections on both sides of the Atlantic. In doing so lie has brought
to life one of England s most intriguing and significant literary
characters. Hodgson s close friendships with Eliot, Siegfried Sassoon and
Edmund
Blunden
provide the biography with absorbing insights into
contemporary literary history. His life in Japan during the
1920s
and 30s
and his final years in
tlie
United States, when he wrote much of his
compelling work, will make fascinating reading for both the
reader and the literary historian alike. Elustrated with Hodgson s
„. ..„
cartoons and line-drawings, Dreaming of Babylon is sure to capture yet
another generation of readers for Hodgson s timeless verse.
His verse stands ap
