For the revised and enlarged edition of his collected poems - reissued to celebrate his 80th birthday - Stephen Spender has made considerable changes from the text of the original edition of 1955. He has included a number of recent and unpublished poems, discarded several others and recast and rewritten much of the work in the earlier collection.

Offers both a subjective history of our times and a true poet's journal. Spender has preserved his memories of people and events, drafts of poems, plays and stories, vivid travel notes from all over the world, insights into painting and music, and the impressions of a life devoted to literature.
