But a softer lyrical voice, also present in the earlier books, is given more room to develop in poems about gardens and contentment and the poignancy of having something to lose. "If I Don't Know" ends with a longer poem, a moving narrative called "The Teacher's Tale"'. (Quote taken from the inside front flap) ***A first impression of the wrappers issue of the true first edition, in very nice near fine condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. N° de réf. du vendeur PB653
