Idylls of the Nymphai from a Mantic Coracle is Harry Matthews' seventh poetry collection. In it the author takes us on a journey with the Nymphs from the vantage point of a mantic coracle. This, the poet explains, is a congenial vessel for prophetic utterance, a means of catching fish mid-river as much as landing poems that evoke a dreamy, pastoral world.
