About this book

The Neo-pagans: Friendship and Love in the Rupert Brooke Circle by Delany, Paul.. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780333445723.

Brookes death in April 1915 made him a national hero and Edwardian star. The potent image of the young Apollo. beautiful, lyrical and carefree, sacrificing himself for England was the stuff of instant martyrdom. The real story is far from golden buy more worth the telling: Paul Delaney argues that Brooke went to war actually hoping to die, as the only way to cut the Gordian knot of his tangled emotions.
