Birds, Beasts and Flowers

Beschrijving

‘Birds, Beasts and Flowers' (1923) was the volume that Lawrence himself described as his best collection of poetry. Composed in various locations during his exile - in Italy, France, Germany and the United States-this long collection occupies a crucial place in the development of his poetry and is that most unusual of creations: a masterpiece of modernist nature writing and a masterful exploration of the possibilities of free verse.
