First World War Poems From The Front
”From ”How to Die, ” by Siegfried Sassoon” ”Dark clouds are smouldering into red While down the craters morning burns. The dying soldier shifts his head To watch the glory that returns; He lifts his fingers toward the skies Where holy brightness breaks in flame; Radiance reflected in his eyes, And on his lips a whispered name.” The poems in this anthology--all written by poets who served on the front line--draw readers into the horrors of life in the trenches, documenting events as they unfolded in excruciating detail and creating a body of work so vivid that it continues to haunt us one hundred years later. With ”First World War Poems from the Front, ” Paul O`Prey offers an in-depth exploration of the Great War poets, including powerful poems by Siegfried Sassoon,
Wilfred Owen, Isaac Rosenberg, and Julian Grenfell, as well as two World War I nurses: Vera Brittain and Mary Borden. The poems are accompanied by a brief and accessible introduction and short biographical profiles that set them in context for readers new to the works.
