Overview

In this accessible and stimulating introduction to John Keats, David Edwards shows him to be one of the most accomplished and influential stylists in English poetry. In his odes and his great narrative poetry, Keats achieves a dazzling word-magic, melodious and intense. Yet Keats's masterpieces do more than merely entertain; they continue to challenge us with profound ideas - perceived as radical in his own day and maintaining their relevance in our own.
