I Want! I Want! by Vicki Feaver Philip Terry Published by Carcanet Press onThe title of Vicki Feavers remarkable new collection derives from Blakes illustration of a child standing with one foot on a ladder to the moon, crying I want! I want! In the title poem it represents her childhood ambition to be a poet; in another, she rejects pressure towards achievement and longs to return to the sensual world of the earth.
