Description

---

Hyperion is Harry Matthews' third poetry collection and contains a good part of his life and knowledge in a new light, on a new level, as though transformed. Each poem is an experience of a stage of life that grasps its own maturity by what is makes of it. The poems are the wrestling of a soul for the transfiguration of the Eternal image of God in the here and now. Against the disturbance of a rising tide of greed & delusions in the world, he evokes the forces that threaten the prevailing order and those that may bring it wholeness.
