Nicholas Korn has undertaken an ambitious project in his ‘Wild Sonnets’ poem sequence. It is also a surprisingly original project, given the long history of the sonnet form. Korn is highly skilled at metaphor-making, demonstrating what Aristotle once wrote of this ability in his “Poetics”—that it is the mark of genius, and the most important feature of good imaginative writing.
Korn’s work is a masterclass in poetical conceits and unfurling ideas through imagery. I highly recommend the ‘Wild Sonnets’ series by one of the leading lyric poets of our time.
