Crow: From the Life and Songs of the Crow is a literary work by poet Ted Hughes, first published in 1970 by Faber and Faber, and one of Hughes' most important works. Writing for the Ted Hughes Society journal in 2012, Neil Roberts, Emeritus Professor of English Literature at the University of Sheffield, said: It is quoted briefly in the liner notes of Paul Simon's song "My Little Town", and in the epigraph of Catspaw by Joan D. Vinge.
