Product Description

Book Description

In 1916 Robert Graves was wounded by German shell and left for dead. Mercifully he survived, and the grim horrors that he had endured were to inspire some of his finest poetry. Counted among the sixteen poets of the First World War, Graves' verse is at once tragic and profound, appalling and strangely captivating. In 1927 Graves excluded his war poetry from his published work and it was only in 1988 when his son, William, brought them together in a new collection that they once again became available. Despite this gap, these poems have lost neither their eternal significance nor their power to conjure up the agonies of the Great War. AUTHBIO: Robert Graves was a prolific writer and turned his hand to essays, translations, historical works, novels and short stories. During his lifetime he was known for his highly unorthodox and individual views, in particular on religion, but it was for his poetry that he most wished to be remembered. Ranked among the twelve poets of the Great War, Graves' verse is marked for its intensity and fervent passion. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
