Music at midnight : the life and poetry of George Herbert
Drury, John, 1936-2013
Books
George Herbert wrote, but never published, some of the very greatest English poetry, recording in an astonishing variety of forms his inner experiences of grief, recovery, hope, despair, anger, fulfilment and - above all else - love. In this book John Drury sets Herbert's poetry in the whole context of the poet's life and times, so that the reader can understand the frame of mind and kind of society which shaped his poetry.
