Synopsis

The Collected Poems is a new and definitive edition of the poetry of one of the best-loved and most enduringly popular modern poets. Almost all of Jennings's published poetry (including work never before collected) and a large selection of her unpublished poems are included here, together with resources detailing her poetry, prose, essays, plays and correspondence. An afterword draws on her unpublished autobiography 'As I Am' and her unpublished theological prose to illuminate the religious faith at the heart of her poetry. Emma Mason, a Senior Lecturer at the University of Warwick, has written extensively on religion in English literature. Her critical edition enables Jennings's poetry to speak to a new generation of readers.
