The Farmer's Bride (Version 2) - Charlotte MEW

A powerful collection of short poems published in 1921 by the English poet Charlotte Mew (1869–1928). Lauded during her lifetime by luminaries such as Thomas Hardy, Siegfried Sassoon and Virginia Woolf, her extreme antipathy towards self-promotion and her deep desire for privacy resulted in her work never achieving the profile that it deserved. - Summary by Michael Maggs
