A Speaking Silence by Rosemarie Vera Bailey Book PDF Summary
This new anthology of Quaker poets - the first for over a hundred years - features poets such as U A Fanthorpe, Gerard Benson, Philip Gross, Ann Drysdale, Gillian Allnutt, Basil Bunting, Waldo Williams, and many others, from well-known names to exciting newcomers. A Speaking Silence reveals the strong affinity between poetry and Quakerism. Yet this is not a book of sacred verse but a wide-ranging exploration of the real world in all its light and shade, seen through a distinctively Quaker poetic lens.
