Synopsis
Ask two poets what a first draft looks like and you’ll get wildly different answers. From typed pages with delicate annotation to scribbles in a dog-eared notebook, drafts tell us so much more about poems – and poets – than the published versions ever could.
Themed chapters allow for fascinating new comparisons – William Blake’s ‘London’ (1794) sits alongside Andrew Salkey’s ‘Jamaica’ (1973) in discussions of place – revealing how each manuscript has shaped our understanding and practice of poetry today.
Experts from the British Library explain the process and provenance behind poems from across the globe, and practicing poets reveal their own drafts, with new reflections on their writing.

Hardback. Etat : New. Ask two poets what their first drafts look like, and you'll get wildly different answers. From typed pages with delicate annotation to hasty scribbles in a dog-eared notebook, drafts can tell us so much more about poems - and their poets - than their final, published versions.Diverse themes including love, inequality, and the natural world bring together some of the most culturally significant and emotionally affecting poems in the British Library's collections and beyond. These carefully selected drafts are written on materials ranging from school exercise books to mulberry bark to Holloway prison toilet paper. They include not only English and American poetry, but also drafts in Amharic, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Japanese, Persian, Thai and Sanskrit. Expert commentary explains the provenance of the manuscripts, as well as the secrets they reveal about the writing process. Previously unpublished early drafts by practising poets including Benjamin Zephaniah, Simon Armitage, Pascale Petit and Hollie McNish are accompanied by new reflections from the poets themselves on their inspiration and craft.

Hardcover. Etat : New. Manuscript poems show us works-in-progress and can reveal much about the poets and their creative processes. With reproductions and transcriptions of handwritten documents, the stories behind the poems and commentaries by practising poets, this anthology is arranged by theme, including Epics, Conflict and Love, and presents a great variety of manuscripts, among them papyrus fragments (Sappho), illuminated manuscripts (Chaucer) and scribbled drafts (Byron), fair copies (Rimbaud) and typescript (TS Eliot).
