Field of Large Desires

Launched in 1979 by Anthony Astbury and Geoffrey Godbert, with the support of Harold Pinter, the Greville Press has quietly established itself as indispensable to those who love poetry. Its pamphlets have built a reputation for discoveries of the new and recoveries of the neglected; for championing translations of great world poets and delighting in the classics of English literature - above all, for their manifest enthusiasm for the enriching pleasures of poetry in all its variety. "A Field of Large Desires" offers a sampler of poems that have been published by the Greville Press: it is both a treasure trove and a celebration of a remarkable venture.
