Ivor Gurney Orden de los libros (cronológico)
Ivor Gurney fue un compositor y autor cuya obra se adentra en profundos paisajes emocionales y psicológicos. Su formación musical temprana sentó las bases de un talento notable, aunque su viaje artístico estuvo a menudo marcado por luchas internas. La poesía de Gurney, forjada en el crisol de la Primera Guerra Mundial, posee una honestidad cruda y una sensibilidad conmovedora, capturando tanto el sufrimiento personal como la experiencia humana en general. Su prosa, al igual que su música, lidia con la tensión entre la intensidad creativa y una psique frágil, convirtiéndolo en una figura literaria única y conmovedora.

This fine collection brings together a comprehensive selection, and in his informative introduction Jon Silkin traces the changing mood of the poets - from patriotism through anger and compassion to an active desire for social change. The work of Sassoon, Owen, Blunden and Rosenberg is well represented, but also included are less familiar war poets, such as Hardy and Lawrence, war poems written by women poets and translations of verse from Germany, France, Italy and Russia. The shattering, ironic realism, tenderness and regret reflected in these poems encompass the waste and violence war.
