Edwin Muir's 'The Horses'

September 12, 2019 Liam Guilar

Edwin Muir (1887-1939)

This is filed under ‘Poems I remember reading’. There’s not a single line stands out, but the movement and the images remain.

It’s perhaps worth remembering that this poem about a post-apocalyptic world was written before the second world war.
