Una nuova raccolta di poesie di riferimento dell'autore di Cider con Rosie Laurie Lee è amata per i suoi scritti su un mondo rurale perduto. La sua poesia evocativa scaturisce dal suo profondo legame con la natura, mentre traccia il cambiamento delle stagioni e il susseguirsi degli anni. Tuttavia, le poesie di Lee hanno anche catturato la guerra, le relazioni umane e i luoghi lontani, informati dalle sue esperienze personali di vite sradicate dal cambiamento e dal conflitto. Scritti nel corso della sua vita, i versi riuniti in Collected Poems spaziano tra Lee che suona il violino in una città spagnola; estatico nella primavera della sua amata valle di Slad; o che scava per la fede nelle profondità dell'inverno. Raccolte in un volume per la prima volta e comprendenti una generosa selezione di versi inediti dagli archivi di Lee, queste poesie senza tempo e toccanti lo mostrano mentre esprime l'essenza della vita, dell'amore e della perdita.

Laurie Lee has written some of the best-loved travel books in the English language. Born in Stroud, Gloucestershire, in 1914, he was educated at Slad village school and Stroud Central School. At the age of nineteen he walked to London and then travelled on foot through Spain, where he was trapped by the outbreak of the Civil War. He later returned by crossing the Pyrenees, as he recounted in A Moment of War.
Laurie Lee published four collections of poems: The Sun My Monument (1944), The Bloom of Candles (1947), My Many-Coated Man (1955) and Pocket Poets (1960). His other works include The Voyage of Magellan (1948), The Firstborn (1964), I Can't Stay Long (1975), and Two Women (1983). He also wrote three bestselling volumes of autobiography: Cider with Rosie (1959), which has sold over six million copies worldwide, As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning (1969) and A Moment of War (1991).
Laurie Lee is beloved for his writing on a lost rural world. His evocative poetry springs from his deep connection with nature, as he tracks the seasons changing and the years turning over. Yet Lee's poems also captured war, human relationships and distant places, informed by his own experiences of lives uprooted by change and conflict. Written during the course of his lifetime, the verses brought together in Collected Poems range over Lee playing his fiddle in a Spanish town; ecstatic in springtime of his beloved Slad valley; or digging for faith in the depths of winter.
Gathered in one volume for the first time, and including a generous selection of previously unseen verses from Lee's archives, these timeless, poignant poems show him expressing the essence of life, love and loss.
