The bedrock of Rudge's poetry is humanitarianism, a vision of a world where peace and harmony reign triumphant over baser instincts. "Remembering Atlantis" recalls the mythical paradise lost and hints that Armageddon be forestalled. "Poem for Drowned Children" argues that mourning for innocents is and must be universal. There is a kind of old-fashioned, idealistic love-child mentality at work here that is no less appealing than it was a generation ago. It requires a hard, dead soul to remain unmoved by "Graveward to Ireland," wherein only women remain to bear the last coffin after all their men have died in the Troubles. These are dreamy and sometimes woozy poems.
