P. J. Kavanagh at Olney
P. J. Kavanagh visits the house in Olney, Buckinghamshire, where WILLIAM COWPER wrote some of the best-known hymns in the English language.
' For most of his life,' Kavanagh says, ' he believed that he was literally damned.' How, in this quiet country town, did Cowper wrestle with his despair and in a single night produce the comic poem John Gilpin ?
