‘Incurable’ Review by Cathleen Mair for The Idler

Nina Antonia

‘Like a glimmering of a votive candle in one of Johnson’s dream churches, Incurable sheds new light on one of the most gifted, if reclusive, poets of thefin-de-siecle. Incurable pays tribute to this enchanting and eccentric poet while providing fresh insight into an era that continues to fascinate.’ Cathleen Mair for The Idler
