Walter de la Mare (1873-1956) was one of the best-loved English poets of the twentieth century, his verse admired by contemporaries including Thomas Hardy, Robert Frost, W. H. Auden and T. S. Eliot. This volume presents a new selection of de la Mare's finest poems, including perennial favourites such as Napoleon, Fare Well and The Listeners, for a twenty-first-century audience. The poems are accompanied by commentaries by William Wootten, which build up a portrait of de la Mare's life, loves and friendships with the likes of Hardy, Rupert Brooke, Edward Thomas and Katherine Mansfield. They also point out the fascinating references to literature, folklore and the natural world that embroider the verse.

The renowned literary critic offers an enlightening exploration of three great poets that “goes to the heart of our experience of lyric” (Bonnie Costello, Boston University, author of Shifting Ground). When a poet addresses a living person, we recognize the expression of intimacy. But what impels poets to leap across time and space to speak to invisible listeners? In Invisible Listeners, Helen Vendler looks at three great poets from different centuries who do just that: George Herbert with God, Walt Whitman with a reader in the future, and John Ashbery with the Renaissance painter Francesco Parmigianino. Through insightful readings, Vendler demonstrates how these poets each invent the language that will enact, on the page, an intimacy they lack in life. Herbert revises the usual “vertical” address to God in favor of a “horizontal” one—addressing God as a friend. Whitman hovers between erotic and quasi-religious language to find the democratic camerado, who will, following Whitman’s example, find his true self. And Ashbery, seeking a fellow artist who believes that art always distorts what it represents, must travel to the remote past. In Parmigianino, he finds both a theory and a precedent for his own inventions. By creating the forms and speech of ideal intimacy, these poets set forth the possibility of a more complete and satisfactory human interchange—an ethics of relation that is uncoerced, understanding, and free.

In "The Listeners and Other Poems," Walter De la Mare crafts a collection that transcends mere verse, blending ethereal themes with vivid imagery and haunting tones. The poems range from explorations of the supernatural to contemplations on solitude and nature, all marked by De la Mare's signature musicality and meticulous attention to language. His mastery of rhythm and sound, paired with a quintessentially British sensibility, evokes feelings of nostalgia and wonder, situating his work in the rich tradition of early 20th-century poetry that grapples with the metaphysical and the ambiguous. Walter De la Mare (1873-1956) was an English poet, novelist, and short story writer whose work often reflects his fascination with the uncanny and the mystical aspects of life. Growing up in a literary family and surrounded by the artistic influences of his time, De la Mare's writing is imbued with an innate curiosity about the human experience and the worlds beyond. His own experiences, along with his deep engagement with folklore, children's literature, and the everyday, shaped a unique voice that resonates through this collection. "The Listeners and Other Poems" is essential reading for anyone interested in the interplay of dream and reality. De la Mare's evocative language and richly imaginative landscapes invite readers into realms of enchantment and introspection, making this collection a must-have for both poetry enthusiasts and those new to his work.
