Amores Poems

This vintage book contains D. H. Lawrence's 1916 collection of verse, 'Amores: Poems'. This fantastic collection of poetry was compiled as Lawrence's literary career started to take off, and is a clear portrayal of his belief that industrial Western civilisation was unnatural. This was due to the championing of intellectual attributes, and the exclusion of natural or physical instincts. He also believed, however, that this form of culture was changing, and that the human race would develop a new awareness of itself and its relationship to nature. The poems of this collection include: 'Tease', 'The Wild Common', 'Study', 'Discord in Childhood', 'Virgin Youth', 'Monologue of a Mother', 'In a Boat', 'Week-night Service', 'Irony', 'Dreams Old', 'A Winter's Tale', 'Epilogue', 'A Baby Running Barefoot', and many more. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned biography of the author.
