IN THE DREAMY AFTERNOON poems by John Gambril Nicholson
John Gambril Nicholson's Uranian poetry may sound overtly camp to late 20th Century ears. But even his purplest of purple prose does capture the feel of a sexuality rarely expressed and socially scorned; the love of men for boys. His poetry is perhaps the most moving of all the Uranian poets that flourished around the turn of the century.
This collection transcends the boundaries of its confinement in history to express with beautiful and often highly comic lyricism the timelessness of love, desire and ultimate rejection.
