Almost none of these poems were published in Hopkins's lifetime. When they finally appeared in 1918, they changed the course of English poetry.

Priest, convert, and secret genius, Gerard Manley Hopkins wrote a poetry unlike anything before it - packed, sprung, and straining with the inscape of the living world. Here are the great hymns of praise - God's Grandeur, The Windhover, Pied Beauty, Spring and Fall - and, at the book's dark heart, the terrible sonnets of his last desolate years, wrung from a soul in the grip of despair: Carrion Comfort, No worst, there is none, I wake and feel the fell of dark.
