Featuring poems scattered over nearly thirty years of writing and salvaged from the diaries 'authored' by one Sue Townsend, this slim volume features more than thirty pieces of Adrian's unique art • From his timeless first documented poem - The Tap - via classic odes to his muse, first and only true love Pandora (I adore ya), we follow Adrian's life in verse form. We not only witness his burgeoning political anger in works like Mrs Thatcher (Do you weep, Mrs Thatcher, do you weep?) but also see in later poems his merciless examination of the hollow shell of masculinity as well as documenting his declining libido in tragic pieces like To My Organ • For the first time in a single volume, these are the collected poems of misunderstood intellectual and tortured poet Adrian Mole подробнее

As a young man, Proust wrote both poetry and prose. Even after he embarked on his masterful In Search of Lost Time at the age of thirty-eight, he never stopped writing poetry. His verse is often playful, filled with affection and satire, and is peppered with witty barbs at friends and people in his social circle of aristocrats, writers, musicians, and courtesans • Few of the poems collected here under the editorship of Harold Augenbraum, founder of the Proust Society of America, have ever been published in book form or translated into English until now. In this dual-language edition of new translations, Augenbraum has brought together nineteen renowned poets and poetry translators to bring Proust's exuberant verse back to life • Marcel Proust (1871-1922) is generally viewed as the greatest French novelist and perhaps the greatest European novelist of the 20th century

В сборнике "Собрание стихотворений Элизабет Барретт Браунинг" читатели найдут не только ее хорошо известную серию любовных стихотворений "Сонеты с португальского", но и менее известные сонеты • Эта обширная подборка ее стихов показывает реальную историю ее продолжительной творческой жизни, которая началась с ее детских поэтических амбиций и закончилась только с ее смертью • Книга на английском языке • Elizabeth Barrett Browning was such an acclaimed poet in her own lifetime that she was suggested as a candidate for the Poet Laureateship when Wordsworth died in 1850. Yet today we have only a limited knowledge of her considerable life's work as a poet, in part because of a lack of representative but accessible editions of her work. Readers will find here not only her well-known sonnet sequence of love poems, Sonnets From the Portuguese, but also lesser known sonnets, some in praise of the cross-dressing bohemian writer George Sand, others to contemporary poets and artists

В этот сборник вошли стихи Томаса Гарди, автора знаменитых романов "Тэсс из рода д’Эрбервиллей" и "Джуд незаметный". Он начал писать стихи во времена, когда ведущими британскими поэтами были Альфред Теннисон и Роберт Браунинг. И 60 лет спустя, когда главными мастерами искусства стихосложения были Элиот и Йейтс, он продолжал сочинять невероятно пронзительные произведения. Несравненная продуктивность Гарди и уникальность его творческого видения возвысили его стихи над веяниями литературной моды. К началу XXI века его репутация лучше, чем когда бы то ни было - лучше, чем в годы его жизни. Теперь он известен благодаря не только качеству своих стихов, но и их популярности среди ценителей поэзии. Его произведения очень непосредственны, человечны и полны юмора; они непременно придутся по вкусу как филологам, так и простым читателям
