THOMAS HARDY: POEMS OF THE PAST AND THE PRESENT Edited by A.H. NInham A book of Thomas Hardy's poetry from 1901, including some WWI poems, poems of an Italian trip, and favourites such as 'The Well-Beloved', 'At a Lunar Eclipse', 'The Darkling Thrush', 'The Self Unseeing', 'De Profundis' and 'Tess's Lament'. Thomas Hardy's poetry lies at the core of his artistic achievement. But it is the novels, in particular Tess of the d'Urbervilles, Far From the Madding Crowd, Jude the Obscure, The Mayor of Casterbridge, The Woodlanders and The Return of the Native, that have made Hardy popular with readers and critics. For Hardy, though, the poetry is at the heart of his artistic life. It contains his deepest emotions, his thoughts on the most intimate matters. The poetry is, as Robert Graves said, a 'spiritual autobiography'. Includes a gallery of illustrations and an introduction to Hardy's poetry and novels. 200 pages. www.crmoon.com
