  Peter Finch has long been a significant figure in Welsh-poetry-in-English and a busy editor and publisher. The Welsh Poems, a title which pays homage to poet John James, is a survey of his more experimental work from the past two decades, including visual work, sound poems, and a number of playful texts that riff on language, grammar and typography. The Welsh language seeps into Finch's work at all levels, sometimes penetrating the poems to the core, and at other times held at arm's length.
