About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Poems & Songs by Richard Middleton. Read in English by Larry Wilson; Eva Davis; Nemo; Sandra Schmit; Sonia; RecordingPerson; B. Heath; Alex Inigo; Melanie T; Jude; Patrick Saville This is a volume of poetry by English poet Richard Middleton. While hardly known to readers anymore today, Middleton's poems, stories, and essays were all very highly regarded during his lifetime and after his untimely death, having won the admiration of many of his contemporary critics and writers whose fame endured longer than that of Middleton himself. A look into this volume of poetry should convince the reader or listener that Middleton's poetry certainly deserves much more attention than is currently given it. - Summary by Carolin
