So Bright & Delicate: Love Letters & Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne" is a testament to the love that inspired the passion & creativity of one of the greatest English Romantic poets. This " Penguin Classics" edition

Includes:: an introduction by Jane Campion Oscar-winning director of the film " Bright Star". John Keats died aged just twenty-five leaving behind some of the most exquisite & moving verse & love letters ever written inspired by his great love for his neighbour Fanny Brawne. Although they knew each other for just a few short years & spent a great deal of that time apart
- separated by Keatss worsening illness which forced a move abroad
- Keats wrote again & again about & to his love right until his very last poem called simply " To Fanny". She in turn would wear the ring he had given her until her death. " So Bright & Delicate" contains the love poems & correspondence composed by Keats in the heat of his passion & is a dazzling display of a talent cruelly cut short. John Keats (1795-1821) lost both his parents at an early age. His decision to commit himself to poetry rather than follow a career in medicine was a personal challenge unfounded in any prior success. His first volume of poetry published in 1817 was a critical & commercial failure. During his short life he received little recognition & it was not until the latter part of the nineteenth century that his place in English Romanticism began to be understood & not until this century that it became fully appreciated. If you enjoyed " So Bright & Delicate" you might like Keatss " Complete Poems" also available in " Penguin Classics"."
