The Complete Poems of Thomas Hardy

Více o knize

Thomas Hardy's first love was always poetry, but it was not until 1898, when he was fifty-eight years old and had already established his reputation with fourteen novels and over forty short stories, that his first book of poetry, Wessex Poems, was published. For the final thirty years of his life he abandoned fiction and devoted himself entirely to poetry. ... The Complete Poems, appearing for the first time in paperback, was edited by James Gibson for the New Wessex series and includes all of Hardy's prolific output of over 900 poems -- his eight books of verse, all the uncollected poems, 'Domicilium' and the songs from The Dynasts. --PAPERMAC.
