This book is a collection of sonnets, a series of poems written in a specific rhyme scheme and traditionally dealing with the themes of love, loss, nature, and the passing of time. The author of this collection shows great range, with sonnets devoted to all four of these 'classic' subjects and many more besides. Taking a more forward-thinking approach than many authors in the style, the author explores controversial themes such as the role of women in society and the negative impact of industrialization alongside deeply personal poems about the author's own experiences of love and loss. This volume includes a large number of sonnets that are not strictly conforming to the traditional sonnet format, yet retain the spirit of the style, and some that are more unconventional still, both in content and structure. Whilst acknowledging and engaging with the sonnet tradition, this book is no dry recitation of classic tropes, but a bold and vital intervention in the form, sure to challenge and provoke the reader.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
