Cherubims: Poems, by Edward Clarke

Review by Jonathan Wooding

by Jonathan Wooding 23rd June 2023

If you’ve ever sighed with relief when the children leave Meeting and go their own fidgety, smirking way, then shame on us all. Take a look at what we’re missing. Edward Clarke is happy running the Children’s Meeting, even when the kids are having tantrums, or interrupting his best efforts to compose a new poem. Here he is diligently composing in the early hours of the morning – what discipline!
