Summary:
One of the modern masters of the extended poem, W. H. Auden has
selected for this volume the longer poems he originally published
between 1930 and 1947, which are among his most enduring
achievements, both for their technical virtuosity and for the
emotional and intellectual precision with which he dissects the
spiritual illnesses of our times. Collected Longer Poems includes
Paid on Both Sides, Letter to Lord Byron, For the Time Being, The Sea
and the Mirror, and The Age of Anxiety.With its companion volume,
Collected Shorter Poems, published by Random House in 1967, this
collection represents all of his past work that Auden wishes to
preserve.This edition is set from the first American edition of 1969
and commemorates the seventy-fifth anniversary of Random House.
