About
William Blake was a poet of intense passion, of visions and angelic Clipper visitations and of bullish non-conformism. From a world where he was inspired by the terrible cruelties of child labour and the social and political revolutions swamping Europe and America, he created poetry of both power and tenderness. Unique in his methods and influential to this day, these readings of some of his works show the range of his concerns and styles. Some are fueled by angry despair at Man's inhumanity, others joyously childlike, and others almost spiritual manifestos couched in language of rare delicacy.
