Underwhelming for me. I had previously enjoyed "Garden of Love" and "Holy Thursday" and this inspired me to read through a collection of Blake, but I didn't find any other piece particularly moving. I think having a better understanding of Blake's social and historical context would help one understand why Blake is such a central figure of British Romanticism.

The Collected Poems of W. B. Yeats

Judith Junghans

It took me 3 years but it was an outstanding journey.

A leader of the twentieth-century Irish nationalist movement, who eventually became one of the Free States's senators, William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) is also the greatest poet that nation has yet produced. The present selection includes poetry from every period in life, dealing with all the topics closest to his heart: love, death, old age, ambition, the poet's craft, and of course the history and destiny of Ireland.

W. B. Yeats

W. B. Yeats (1865-1939) was not only Ireland's greatest poet but one of the most influential voices in world literature in the twentieth century. His extraordinary work, in the words of this volume's editor Seamus Heaney, encourages us 'to be more resolutely and abundantly alive, whatever the conditions.' Other volumes in this series: Auden, Betjemen, Eliot, Hughes and Plath
