Wilfrid Wilson Gibson

    Wilfrid Wilson Gibson zachycoval ve své poezii drsnou krásu a sociální realitu severovýchodní Anglie, zejména divoké krajiny Northumberlandu. Jeho verše často čerpaly z místních balad a bohaté lidové písňové tradice, přičemž zobrazovaly životy rybářů, průmyslových dělníků a horníků. Gibson také prozkoumal temnější, makabrózní témata a ironicky se dotkl válečné reality, i když sám aktivně nesloužil. Jeho dílo vyzařuje silné pouto k regionu a jeho lidem.
