About the book

This collection presents the poetry of Rupert Brooke, one of the most widely remembered English poets of the early twentieth century. Brooke's work ranges from lyrical poems about love, youth and nature to the war sonnets that brought him lasting fame during the First World War. His poetry often combines idealism with an awareness of mortality and the fragility of human experience. The famous wartime poems capture the patriotic mood of the conflict's early years, while his wider work reveals a more varied and sensitive poet concerned with memory, beauty and the passing of youth.
