$22.00
A used paperback copy of These I Have Loved: My Favourite New Zealand Poems by Harvey McQueen, published in 2010. Harvey McQueen (1934–2010) was one of New Zealand's most respected poets and anthologists — editor of the groundbreaking Penguin Book of New Zealand Verse (with Ian Wedde, 1985) and an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to education and literature.
Format: Paperback
Published: 2010
Condition: Used — Very Good. Bright and clean copy, minimal wear.
In this, his final anthology, McQueen selected his 100 favourite New Zealand poems and wrote personally about what each section meant to him — from James K. Baxter (who he said bestrode his poetry life like a colossus) to Allen Curnow and a range of contemporary voices. A rich and personal celebration of New Zealand poetry by a lifetime insider. Divided into evocative sections including love, loss, landscape and language. Highly recommended for any New Zealand bookshelf.
