Letters from Yorkshire - Maura Dooley
Maura Dooley
autobiographical inspired by letters from friend
used to live in Yorkshire
contrast of modern electronic to natural life
' In February, digging his garden, planting potatoes,/ he saw the first lapwings return and came/ indoors to write to me, his knuckles singing'
Enjambement throughout gives verse free flow like her correspondents' life flowing effortlessly to her.
alliteration, cycle of seasons, continuity
' me with my heartful of headlines/ feeding words into a blank screen./ Is your life more real because you dig and sow?'
alliteration link , lifeless contrast, bland in comparison from 'reddened' 'warmth' 'singing' to 'blank'
'Still, it's you/ who sends me word of the other world/ pouring air and light into an envelope.'
lives in Yorkshire through him, vicariously
