'Poems, 1914-1919' Summary
Maurice Baring's Poems, 1914-1919 is a collection of poetry that reflects on the experiences of World War I. The collection is divided into two parts, with the first part containing poetry written before the war, mostly about Baring's travels in Russia. The second part of the collection is made up of poetry concerning World War I, with some particularly evocative sonnets and other poems. Baring's poetry is marked by its clarity, precision, and attention to detail. He is able to capture the sights, sounds, and smells of war in a way that is both vivid and moving. His poems explore the themes of loss, grief, and the search for meaning in the midst of chaos.Book Details
