Summary:

On the poem 'Marsh Thistle' in Wilder: 'Marsh Thistle' is a beautifully robust and formal piece of what critic James Wood calls 'serious noticing'. Who had noticed the humble marsh thistle so, before, and dared invest it with such imaginative rigour. It is a paean with something tough and daring about it' Kathleen Jamie, RSPB/The Rialto Nature and Place Competition report, in The Rialto.
