Poëzie & Drama
'Last Poems' is a poignant collection of 42 poems, written by A. E. Housman in honor of his dying friend and unrequited love, Moses Jackson. The compilation includes previously unpublished works, as well as some of his most beloved poems, such as 'Epitaph on an army of mercenaries.' Housman feared he would not have the inspiration to write much more, so he published the collection to ensure his works were preserved. The collection received critical acclaim, and its initial print run sold out immediately. It stands as a testament to the enduring power of Housman's poetry and the depth of his emotions. Here's an excerpt from one of the first poems in the collection, 'The West': " Beyond the moor and the mountain crest / —Comrade, look not on the west— / The sun is down and drinks away / From air and land the lees of day."
