About the book

Rupert Brooke's poetry captures the idealism, beauty and unease of the years immediately before and during the First World War. His best-known war sonnets, including 'The Soldier', express an early patriotic response to the conflict, while other poems explore love, youth, travel and mortality. Brooke's lyrical style and early death in 1915 made him one of the emblematic literary figures of his generation.
