Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compilation of poetry contains the most noted and celebrated works of English poet Rupert Brooke. Distinguished from an early age, Brooke excelled in school and in Cambridge University before plunging into British literary society. An emotional breakdown following a romantic breakup led him to depart the UK for recuperation in the USA and Canada, where he would write travelogues for a newspaper named The Westminster Gazette. Upon departing North America, Brooke opted to take a long sea journey across the Pacific. In the South Seas he enjoyed a relationship with a Tahitian woman by the name of Taatamata. Prior to the outbreak of World War I and his consequent military enlisting, the handsome young literary had several other romances. Tragically, Rupert Brooke lost his life as a soldier in World War I. He died at the age of 27 in April 1915 from an infected mosquito bite during the British Army's expedition to the Mediterranean, and was buried on the Greek island of Skyros.

Download PDF Now All Roads Lead to France by Matthew Hollis and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2011-08-04 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward Thomas was perhaps the most beguiling and influential of First World War poets. Now All Roads Lead to France is an account of his final five years, centred on his extraordinary friendship with Robert Frost and Thomas's fatal decision to fight in the war. The book also evokes an astonishingly creative moment in English literature, when London was a battleground for new, ambitious kinds of writing. A generation that included W. B. Yeats, Ezra Pound, Robert Frost and Rupert Brooke were 'making it new' - vehemently and pugnaciously. These larger-than-life characters surround a central figure, tormented by his work and his marriage. But as his friendship with Frost blossomed, Thomas wrote poem after poem, and his emotional affliction began to lift. In 1914 the two friends formed the ideas that would produce some of the most remarkable verse of the twentieth century. Their writing was far more than just war poetry, but it was World War I that put an ocean between them. Frost returned to the safety of New England while Thomas stayed to fight for the Old. It is these roads taken - and those not taken - that are at the heart of this remarkable book, which culminates in Thomas's tragic death on Easter Monday 1917.
