Poetry anthologies

A stunning new collection of World War II poetry. This anthology brings together poems written during the period of the Second World War which, in some important way, are touched by or touched upon it, but also a selection of poems from later in the twentieth-century, which deal with its legacy. It includes verse by renowned poets and writers such as Keith Douglas, Alun Lewis, Randall Jarrell and Primo Levi. There is also poetry by civilians and survivors in London, Warsaw, Moscow, New York, and by writers dealing with the terrifying legacy of the conflict and its dead for the living in the years after the war.
