The Sense of Movement by Thom Gunn
Publishing: 1957, University of Chicago Press; Chicago, Illinois. First edition
Thom Gunn was a British-born poet who blended classical control with the energy of postwar counterculture, becoming known for his sharp, disciplined verse about desire, identity, rebellion, and life on the margins in San Francisco. The Sense of Movement is considered the authors breakthrough book where he fuses strict metrical form with the spirit of postwar restlessness.
