This gorgeous new collection gathers into one concise volume the finest work by Queen Victoria’s favorite poet. Whether steeped in sensuous melancholy, as in “Maud,” or chivalric, heroic, and allegorical, as in “Morte D’Arthur,” Tennyson’s poetry epitomizes the Victorian age for which he became a spokesperson when named Poet Laureate of England in 1850.
“[Tennyson] had the finest ear of any English poet since Milton.” —T. S. Eliot
