I marvel at your words, Dame Sally. No, that’s not quite right. I marvel at the kind of mind that creates such words. It’s like looking through an open door into a study, and seeing Helen Dunmore writing “City Lilacs.” I can see what she’s doing. But I haven’t the vaguest idea how she does it. It’s exactly the same with your poetry.
