About the book

This collection brings together poetry and prose by Gerard Manley Hopkins, one of the most original voices of Victorian literature. Hopkins developed a highly distinctive poetic style using dense imagery, unusual rhythms and what he called 'sprung rhythm.' His work explores nature, religious faith, beauty and spiritual struggle with extraordinary intensity. The combination of poems and prose gives readers a broad view of Hopkins's language, ideas and experiments with sound and rhythm, highlighting the qualities that made his writing so distinctive within nineteenth-century English literature.
