Book Synopsis The Automatic Oracle by : Peter Porter
Book excerpt: Peter Porter's new collection demonstrates his maturity as a poet and his ability to work in a variety of forms. Speaking of the English language as the "oracle" with the poet acting as a "priest" carrying messages to the outside world, Porter concentrates on the themes of childhood, dreams, painting, history, as well as words and their responsibilities.
