Kovesi talks about John Clare, who seems more present than ever in contemporary literary culture. His imperishable poems can be traced in the opening pages of Christopher Hitchens' God Is Not Great, through to George Monbiot's recent assertion that British environmetalism begins with Clare, which he followed with a call for England to copy Scotland's Burns Night with a Clare Day' to celebrate English rural life. Clare's autobiographical voice may be heard, refracted, by the magic and visionary anarchism of Alan Moore in his Voice of the Fire.
