Title: The Bees Author: Carol Ann Duffy Narrator: Carol Ann Duffy Format: mp3 Length: 1 hr and 24 mins Release date: 01-10-25 Ratings: Not rated yet Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: The Bees is Carol Ann Duffy’s first collection of poems as Poet Laureate. In it she uses her full poetic range: there are drinking songs, love poems, poems of political anger; there are elegies, too, for beloved friends, and – most movingly – the poet’s own mother. Woven and weaving through the book is its presiding spirit: the bee. Sometimes the bee is Duffy’s subject, sometimes it strays into the poem, or hovers at its edge. In the end, Duffy’s point is clear: the bee symbolizes what we have left of grace in the world, and what is most precious and necessary for us to protect.
