The Heart in Hiding

By Denis Donoghue
Gerard Manley Hopkins: A Biography
by Paddy Kitchen

Atheneum, 243 pp., $11.95

'This is not,' Paddy Kitchen says, 'an official or definitive biography of Gerard Manley Hopkins.' It is a book for the general reader, an affectionate, spontaneous account of an extraordinary man, Hopkins is Ms. Kitchen's favorite poet, and the book is written in that spirit.
