When freed, he grapples with power, fate, and reality. Through poetic dialogue and philosophical themes, the play explores the nature of existence, illusion, and the human struggle for control.

    'What the imagination seizes as Beauty must be truth' So wrote the Romantic poet John Keats (1795-1821) in 1817. This collection "The Complete Poetry of John Keats" contains all of his poetry: the early work, which is often undervalued even today, the poems on which his reputation rests including the Odes and of the uncompleted epic Hyperion, and work which only came to light after his death including his attempts at drama and comic verse. It all demonstrates the extent to which he tested his own dictum throughout his short creative life. That life spanned one of the most remarkable periods in English history in the aftermath of the French Revolution and this collection, with its detailed introductions and notes, aims to place the poems very much in their context. The collection is ample proof that Keats deservedly achieved his wish to 'be among the English Poets after my death'.
    The following John Keats poetry is included in this collection:
    • Ode on Indolence
    • Ode to a Nightingale
    • Ode on a Grecian Urn
    • Ode to Psyche
    • Ode on Melancholy
    • To Autumn
    • Hyperion
    • Endymion
    • The Eve of St. Agnes
    • Isabella

    You never know how things really are in other people's families, in other people's homes. There's the public face and the private truths – the personal griefs and tragedies, whether festering or resting in peace. In her wry, engagingly strange poems, Anne Bailey takes the door off the latch and lets us inside.
    She shows us loss and disappointment, as well as hardness and resilience, particularly through the eyes of a daughter, wife and mother. We see the domestic sphere in such close-up detail that it becomes bizarre, an uncanny dimension that nonetheless rings horribly, weirdly true.
    "So you've put a picture on the lovely blank wall
    
    that used to go pink in the sun
    
    and feel like an ice cream.
    
    A wall on which I used to rest my eyes
    
    in pleasant contemplation."
    
    - from 'Domestic'

    Come  and marvel at how life at large can be encapsulated into a microcosm in  the form of poetic license.  Let this book be your companion when seeking to have some me-time and to chill out in your own chosen surroundings. 
     
    Or,  discuss Mallory’s poems in more depth with others. Poetry can truly dazzle and serves as an equal alternative to the excitement of reading novels. 
     
    The  beauty of poetry is the choice given to read any extract to another appropriate age group that can introduce them into this wonderful genre of literature. Similar  to music, the titles stay with the reader and will, in virtual speak, stamp its date and location to induce its messages across the wide spectrum of what everyone likes to imagine or likes to encounter. 
     
    Poetry is the perfect treat or gift for anyone who would like to travel on a magic carpet away from the madding crowd. Soothe yourself instead - in contrast to an edge of seat thriller novel or film. 
     
    Enjoy!
