The Last Poems of D.H. Lawrence

Taking D. H. Lawrence's late poetry as her starting point, Bethan Jones adopts a broadly intertextual approach to Lawrence's poetry that places it in the context of his prose works and his reading in mythology, cosmology, primitivism, mysticism, and astronomy. The result is a book that prioritises the masterpieces of Lawrence's mature style and shows his late poetry to be as accomplished as that of contemporaries like W. B. Yeats, and Ezra Pound.
