Part 2
and ' IPSISSIMUS '
Two dramatic monologues by Eugene Lee-Hamilton (1845-1910)
Introduced by Ian Fletcher
Read by Anthony Jacobs
Eugene Lee-Hamilton began to write poetry as a relaxation while suffering from a cerebro-spinal complaint that kept him on his back for twenty years. His dramatic monologues have a claustrophobic, hallucinatory quality which seems to derive from these circumstances.
