The Complete Poems

Graves's poems have been re-edited in this volume as part of the "Robert Graves Programme". The text restores hundreds of poems that Graves omitted from the canon or overlooked in his continual refinements and, with its scholarly apparatus, should lead to a re-evaluation of his poetic oeuvre. The poems included here span the years of Graves's relationship with the American poet Laura Riding, the inspiration behind "The White Goddess".
