John Donne is Alive

Earlier this year I wrote a short article for the British Library website about John Donne.

 

It’s intended for ‘A’ Level students, but I said some things I wanted to say about the moment by moment nature of Donne’s poetry. It’s amazing but weirder and weirder the closer you look at it.
