Insightful and delightfully sympathetic. Such a complicated poet. It takes patience and affection to analyse him so accurately.
Thank you, Janet! That’s very kind of you. I certainly have a great deal of affection for John. He was a great loss to poetry. I hope we will get a Collected Poems soon.
Gregory,
I just read your essay on John Whitworth, and wish I had done so long ago. I had the privilege of meeting John in his workshop at West Chester in 2016. He was a force of nature, and a most stimulating workshop leader. Your essay brought him back to life for me, if only briefly. Many thanks for posting it. Barb & I send our best wishes to you.

Ted, good to hear from you. Yes, I had the privilege of meeting John on a few occasions, both at West Chester and in England – though I hadn’t met him when I wrote this essay. Apart from being a wonderful poet, he was great fun to be with – and I can imagine how much fun his workshops must have been.
Best wishes to you and Barb. Hope you are well.
Gregory
