_Sunday Times_: “Mr. Douglas Goldring has caught the glamour of London’s
highways and by-ways ... there is real poetry in this slender volume, and
Mr. Goldring has the art of suffusing with ecstasy apparently commonplace
things....”
_Evening Standard_: “Poems of London streets remarkable for their
freshness. They are short and impressionistic, at times suggesting
comparison with the work of Mr. Davies and Mr. James Stephens.... But the
poet has his own thoughts, and his own methods of expression admirably
suited to them. This little volume deserves recognition.”
_Morning Post_: “Mr. Goldring’s book has been a great comfort to us. All
lovers of London will love it.”
_Rebecca West_ (_Star_): “I insist on saying that his volume ‘Streets’
contains some of the loveliest verse that has ever been written about
London.”
