This new edition broadens the focus to reflect the wealth of forms, the rhetorical and tonal range, and the variousness of content in Auden's poetry, all within the confines of one volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn particular, there are newly included examples of Auden's mastery of light verse: the self-descriptive sequence of haiku called 'Profiles', the barbed wartime quatrains of 'Leap Before You Look', and 'Funeral Blues' itself. Also included are brief notes explaining references that may have become obscure, along with a revised introduction drawing on recent additions to the Auden scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47427771236588,"sku":"9780571241538","price":34.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780571241538.jpg?v=1774767325","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/selected-poems-by-wh-auden-9780571241538","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
