A unique anthology of poems--from around the world and through the ages--that celebrate trees. AN EVERYMAN'S LIBRARY POCKET POET. For thousands of years humans have variously worshipped trees, made use of them, admired them, and destroyed them--and poets have long chronicled the relationship. Poets from Homer and Virgil to Wordsworth, Whitman, and Thoreau, from Su Tung P'o and Basho to Czeslaw Milosz and W. S. Merwin have celebrated sacred groves, wild woodlands, and bountiful orchards, and the results include some of our most beloved poems.
Whether showing their subjects being planted or felled, cherished or lamented, towering in forests or flowering in backyards, the poems collected here pay lyrical tribute to these majestic beings with whom we share the earth. Includes:
- Birches by Robert Frost
- The Camperdown Elm by Marianne Moore
- Binsey Poplars by Gerard Manley Hopkins
- Sequoia by Zbigniew Herbert
- The Lemon Trees by Eugenio Montale
- The Apples by Yves Bonnefoy
- The Plum Tree by Bertolt Brecht
- The Almond Tree by D.H. Lawrence
- The Loveliest of Trees by A.E. Housman Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.
