This book is a collection of poems written by the renowned English poet, Wilfred Owen. Owen is considered one of the most important poets of the First World War, and his work reflects the horrors and tragedies of that era. The book features some of his most famous poems, including ""Dulce et Decorum Est"" and ""Anthem for Doomed Youth"". The poems are written in a variety of styles, including sonnets, ballads, and free verse, and cover a range of themes, including war, death, and the human condition. The language used in the poems is powerful and evocative, and Owen's use of imagery and metaphor creates a vivid picture of the world he lived in. Overall, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in poetry, history, or the human experience.Bent double, like old beggars under sacks, Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge, Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs, And towards our distant rest began to trudge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
