The War Poems Of Wilfred Owen (Vintage Classics) Hardcover – November 1, 2018
Purchase options and add-ons
Wilfred Owen was the greatest poet of the First World War, and his death in battle, a few days before Armistice, was a disastrous loss to English letters.
This volume gathers together the poems for which he is best known, and which represent his most important contribution to poetry in the twentieth century. Taken from the definitive edition of Owen’s work, and containing material unavailable to other editions, this selection has been edited by Professor Jon Stallworthy, who has written an illuminating and authoritative introduction.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good intro to Owen
Notes to go along with the poems are useful - nice book - thought provoking
- AceReviewed in India on August 29, 2017
5.0 out of 5 stars Hard to put down - even though it is poetry.
Superb. From the opening factual documentation through to final word this book portrays the futility of War witnessed by such a young victim. Do read 'Anthem for Doomed Youth' - hold back the tears if you can.

5.0 out of 5 stars Poetry of World War 1
