Wilfred Owen
Wilfred Owen is the "Poet of Pity," whose realistic portrayals of war gave voice to the soldier wounded, captured, or killed--not just in the Great War but in every war since, so great is the evocative power of his work. The shocking realism of poems such as "Strange Meeting" and the angry disillusionment of "Anthem for Doomed Youth" reveal Owen's transformation from a romantic youth steeped in the poetry of Keats to a mature soldier awakened to the horrors of the Western Front.Drawing on numerous manuscripts, artifacts, and family Although he saw only five poems published during his lifetime, Owen left behind a wealth of letters and poetry that together form a powerful legacy.This generously illustrated book tells the story of Owen's life and work, from his birth in 1893 to his tragic death just one week before the signing of the armistice that would end the war.
