Synopsis
By his death, at the age of 41, John Riley's poetry had achieved an
importance beyond the trends of the day. Significant though his poems were
in the 1960s and after, their value goes beyond their immediate poetic and
social context. Riley's is a poetry of integrity and vision, in which
precise observation and wit co-exist with an extraordinary beauty of image
and rhythm. What he achieves is art of a high order.
