East Anglian Verse is an anthology showcasing poetry inspired by and written in the East of England edited by E.A. Goodwin. The collection brings together both classic and contemporary poems from Norfolk, Suffolk and other eastern counties. From pastoral depictions of the Broads to vivid descriptions of coastal towns, the verse captures quintessential East Anglian scenery and sensibilities. There is also moving poetry on industry and landscape change in the region over the years. While capturing eastern regional identity and dialects, the poems speak to universal emotions and experiences through their elegant words and images. This treasury of verse works as both a geographical and cultural snapshot of England’s eastern borderlands. The anthology is a testament to East Anglia’s continued presence in the English poetic imagination.
