Description

The Dead One Touched Me From The Past: A Walk With Writers Through The Centuries is a fresh and intimate collection of literary criticism inspired by the author's travels to the homes of sixteen of literature's great poets and authors. Following, sometimes centuries later, in the footsteps of John Keats, Robert Bu s, William Butler Yeats, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, E. J. Pratt and many others, Art Seamans makes a spiritual pilgrimage back through literary tradition.
