Context
A
-Charles Causley was (like Maura Dooley) from
Cornwall. He lived from 1917-2003.
-Published in 1988, the poem is thought to be
autobiographical: he is perhaps talking about his parents.
-Causley said that he had made-up the location of Eden Rock. It is a dream-like place, and perhaps reflects an idyllic life rather than his actual life.
