About the book

Collected Shorter Poems brings together the varied poetry of W. H. Auden, a writer equally at home in intricate formal verse and the rhythms of conversation. Love, politics, faith and the pressures of public history enter poems that can be intimate, comic, analytical or elegiac. Auden's technical skill gives him ways to question both private motives and collective certainties without settling for an easy answer. The collection reveals the range of a poet whose interest in how people live together remained closely connected to the moral and emotional choices of individual lives.
