"Nothing seemed to escape him, the song of a bird and the undernote of response from covert or hedge, the rustle of some animal, the changing of the green and brown lights and furtive shadows" - Joseph Severn
Keats died tragically young, aged just 25 in 1821, yet is regarded as one of the quintessential Romantic poets. This Pocket Book describes a timeline of his life, extracts of correspondence with his significant others and eight of his best known works; including Ode to a Nightingale, Ode on a Grecian Urn and To Autumn. The cover of this Pocket Book features a drawing by Christopher Fiddes

Publication Essentials
Pocket-sized at 13 x 9.5cm (5 x 3.5" in old money) and comprising 16 pages with a firm card cover. This little volume is just one in the series of Carr's Pocket Books; they hover between a greeting and a present and make a lasting alternative to a birthday card. In cold bedrooms, only one hand need suffer exposure. A distinguished novelist recommends them for reading in the bath and an ambassador claims they can be palmed from the cuff during tedious speeches or profitless sermons.Delivery Information

Reviews
A pleasing selection of verse and biographical detail. A few lines of Hyperion might have been nice, but I recognise the difficulty in making a selection.
