Title: Clive James on Costa 2009 shortlist.
Post by Kevin Cryan on Today at 06:56
Clive James's collection of poetry  Angels Over Elsinore has been shortlisted for this year's Costa Poetry Award (http://www.costabookawards.com/awards/thisyearshortlist2008.aspx).

The judges described Angels Over Elsinore  as "beautifully written, intelligent, full of ideas clearly communicated and feelings perfectly encapsulated".

"These are proper poems with musical structure that are clever, moving and memorable"
