Ether

About the Book

Ether is Robert Darlington’s personally selected collection of his published and unpublished poems. Written between 1972 and 2006, these poems take the reader on a journey from blank verse to free verse; from sonnet to haiku. With Ether, Robert Darlington reveals his deep poetic vision and understanding of poetic forms. It is a poetry book that is both profound and easy to read, written in language that anyone can understand and appreciate. Cover painting by Michael Hindman
