Yeats stands as the definitive testament to a lifetime of visionary verse. This authoritative Definitive Edition, incorporating the author's final revisions, presents the complete arc of Yeats's poetic genius — from the dreamy Celtic twilight of his early Romantic lyrics, through the fierce political urgency of his middle period, to the stark, oracular grandeur of his late masterworks — accompanied throughout by illustrations from his brother, the celebrated painter Jack B. Yeats.\n\nYeats's poetry is a world unto itself: steeped in Irish mythology, occult symbolism, and a ferocious engagement with history, love, and mortality, it chronicles the spiritual and political upheavals of his age with an intensity that has never dimmed. A Nobel Laureate whose influence permeates modern poetry to this day, Yeats writes with a lyrical precision and symbolic density that rewards each new reading with fresh revelation. Whether you come to The Second Coming, Sailing to Byzantium, or The Lake Isle of Innisfree for the first time or the hundredth, this landmark volume asks the reader one enduring question: what does it mean to seek perfection in an imperfect world?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49161017950427,"sku":"2026100009940-SECONDHAND","price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/2d39f0e6-a322-4d75-9798-7d830bdd1171.png?v=1787189144","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009940-secondhand-the-collected-poems-of-w-b-yeats","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
