Poems

by Wilfred Owen

This collection of poems by Wilfred Owen, one of the most notable poets of World War I, reflects the horrors of trench and gas warfare and challenges the patriotic fervor that fueled the war. Owen's vivid and unflinching depictions of the physical and psychological toll of war stand in stark contrast to the public perception of the conflict at the time. His powerful and moving verse captures the disillusionment, suffering, and loss experienced by soldiers on the front lines.
