ISBN: 9780452009561.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an entirely new selection of Keats finest poetry containing all his best known work as well as a sample of less familiar pieces. Keats published three volumes of poetry before his death at age twenty-five of tuberculosis and, while many of his contemporaries were prompt to recognize his greatness, snobbery and political hostility led the Tory press to vilify and patronize him as a \"Cockney poet.\" Financial anxieties and the loss of those he loved most had tried him persistently, yet he dismissed the concept of life as a vale of tears and substituted the concept of a \"vale of Soul-making.\" His poetry and his remarkable letters reveal a spirit of questing vitality and profound understanding and his final volume, which contains the great odes and the unfinished Hyperion, attests to an astonishing maturity of power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Plume","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45212664365109,"sku":"ByrdShop_0452009561","price":65.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780452009561_76b60523-4fc8-4b56-99aa-5631fa003538.jpg?v=1779904397","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/keats-the-selected-poetry-of-9780452009561","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
