This volume reprints his complete oeuvre, from the early lyric poems to those written shortly before his premature death: \"The Old Vicarage, Grantchester,\" \"Tiare Tahiti,\" \"The Great Lover,\" \"The Dead,\" \"The Soldier,\" and many others. \u003cbr\u003e Brooke enlisted in the Royal Navy at the outbreak of the war in 1914 and entered the literary scene early the following year, when two of his sonnets (\"The Dead\" and \"The Soldier\") appeared in London's \u003ci\u003eTimes Literary Supplement.\u003c\/i\u003eThe 27-year-old poet died shortly afterward aboard a ship bound for Gallipoli. His \u003ci\u003e1914 and Other Poems \u003c\/i\u003ewas published immediately afterward to wide acclaim. Brooke remains among Britain's best-loved cultural figures, and his works evoke the tranquility of prewar life and the ideals of heroic self-sacrifice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dover Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780486841960\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 4.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Rupert Brooke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637982425244,"sku":"9780486841960","price":5.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_9a877bc2-c27e-41fe-9ec7-714bd7e24e41.jpg?v=1603846159","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-poems-of-rupert-brooke-9780486841960","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
