First edition of the poet’s classic work. Octavo, original royal blue cloth. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket with the 9s. 6d. net price. Ownership inscription.
A Few Late Chrysanthemums contains a selection of poems written since the appearance of Selected Poems in 1948. The poems, which are divided into groups - Medium, Light, and Gloom - have great variety of subject and mood, each of which is handled with Betjeman's deceptive simplicity, extreme technical skill, and heart-warming passion.
