B>Beautiful early writings by one of the 20th centurys greatest poets on the 150th anniversary of his birthbr>br>A Penguin Classic/b>br>br>The poems, prose, and drama gathered in When You Are Old present a fresh portrait of the Nobel Prizewinning writer as a younger man: the 1890s aesthete who dressed as a dandy, collected Irish folklore, dabbled in magic, and wrote heartrending poems for his beloved, the beautiful, elusive Irish revolutionary Maud Gonne. Included here are such celebrated, lyrical poems as The Lake Isle of Innisfree and He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven, as well as Yeatss imaginative retellings of Irish fairytales--including his first major poem, The Wanderings of Oisin, based on a Celtic fable--and his critical writings, which offer a fascinating window onto his artistic theories. Through these enchanting works, readers will encounter Yeats as the mystical, lovelorn bard and Irish nationalist popular during his own lifetime.br>br>For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
