William Ernest Henley 
Poems [EPUB ebook] 

Supporto

This anthology of William Ernest Henley’s poetry features some of the most beautiful and deeply moving pieces in the Victorian writer’s collection.

First published in 1898, this collection includes the poems William Ernest Henley wrote during and inspired by his time spent in hospital after suffering complications from tuberculosis. His left leg was amputated when he was just 16 and after complications arose with his diseased right foot, he refused to repeat the procedure. The writer produced pieces with vivid imagery and poignant messages based on his tragic personal experience. His In Hospital anthology contains some of the earliest free-verse poems in English literature, and focused on the aftermaths of major surgery and amputation. Delve into the poet’s world and discover some of the most beautiful poetry of the Victorian era.

This volume features poetry from the following anthologies:
– In Hospital

– Echoes

– London Voluntaries – To Charles Whibley
