Classic leather rebinding of Christmas Poems

Daniel Albright’s edition of Yeats’s poems is the most scholarly available. Not only are the poems newly edited to present a close approximation to the ‘sacred book’ Yeats hoped to bequeath to the world, but they are accompanied by detailed explanatory notes and a long introductory essay which help make accessible the work of a poet who pushed imagination to its outer limits yet disciplined his images by confining them to strict lyrical forms.

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