Solitude: Poems (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets)

A literary sanctuary for what Shakespeare called â€œsessions of sweet silent thought,â€ this exquisite gathering of poems speaks to the consolations of solitude. Here is Wordsworth wandering â€œlonely as a cloudâ€; Poe confiding â€œall I loved, I loved aloneâ€; Yeatsâ€™s communion with â€œthe deep heartâ€™s coreâ€; and Han Shanâ€™s heart of a hermit, â€œclean as a white lotus.â€ From Sir Edward Dyerâ€™s â€œMy Mind to Me a Kingdom Is,â€ to the spiritual searching of the Transcendentalists, to the meditative verse of Jorie Graham, some of the most indelible poems from every time and culture have grown out of the aloneness inherent in the poetâ€™s art. The poems collected here, whether reflecting on the soul or on nature, addressing an absent loved one, or honoring the self, form a book of respite and contemplation, and a beautiful tribute to the interior life.
