The vitality and accessibility of Browning's poetry have given it lasting appeal. Many of his finest poems are the intensely dramatic monologues, such as "Andrea del Sarto" or "My Last Duchess," in which the poet's imaginative power is at its height.
This splendid collection features selections from Browning's entire career, through the poet's literary successes and critical disappointments. Includes "Paracelsus," "Home—Thoughts from Abroad," Sordello," "Christmas-Eve" and selections from "The Ring and the Book."
