Author: Wilfred Owen

Format: Hardback

Number of Pages: 96


A collectible new Penguin Classics series- beautiful, slim, clothbound editions of ten favourite poets. I mean the truth untold, The pity of war, the pity war distilled. Poems is Wilfred Owen's only volume of poetry, first published posthumously in 1920 and edited by his friend and mentor, Siegfried Sassoon. Owen is regarded as one of the best poets of World War I and composed nearly all of his poems in just over a year, between August 1917 and September 1918. Owen was virtually unknown at the time of his death, yet his poetic account of a soldier's experience of war has shaped our impression of the horrors of the Western Front. This collection includes the well-known 'Anthem for Doomed Youth' and 'Dulce et Decorum Est'.
