A rare glimpse into the mind of a brilliant young poet through his beautifully
written letters
These extraordinary letters give the fullest and most poignant record we have of
John Keats's aspirations as a poet, his life as a literary man about town, his
close relationship with his siblings, and, later, his passionate, jealous, and
frustrated love for Fanny Brawne. With an insightful introduction and notes by
renowned Keats scholar John Barnard, this is an indispensable companion to the
works of one of the greatest poets of all time.
