The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats

This collection encompasses the entire arc of Yeats's career, from his early lyrical poems influenced by Irish legends and the occult to his later works that reflect on youth, aging, love, and the sociopolitical climate of Ireland.

The poems include reworkings of ancient myths, passionate meditations, whimsical songs of love, and somber reflections on war and national upheaval.

The edition includes Yeats's own notes on his poetry, as well as explanatory notes by Richard J. Finneran.
