ABSE, DANNIE

New Selected Poems. Anniversary Collection 1949-2009

London: Hutchinson, 2009. First Edition; First Impression. Original Decorated Wrappers. ISBN: 0091931150. Dannie Abse (1923-2014) was a Welsh poet, playwright, and physician. He was born on September 22, 1923, in Cardiff, Wales. Abse's writing spans a wide range of themes, encompassing personal experiences, love, loss, and the human condition. He is known for his ability to combine poetic and medical language in his work, reflecting his dual career as a doctor and a poet. Abse's poetry often explores the complexities of relationships, both romantic and familial, and delves into the intricacies of memory and mortality. His poetry exhibits a keen sense of observation, introspection, and a blend of emotional depth and intellectual reflection. Abse's works are characterized by their accessible style, combining vivid imagery with a lyrical and often conversational tone. One of Abse's notable poetry collections is "Welsh Retrospective" (1955) , which showcases his early poems and introduces readers to his poetic voice. Another important collection is "Ask the Moon: New and Collected Poems" (2010) , which spans several decades of his poetic career, providing a comprehensive overview of his work. In addition to his poetry, Abse wrote plays, novels, and essays. His play "The Dogs of Pavlov" (1985) explores themes of memory and trauma through the lens of the Holocaust. Abse's prose works, such as his autobiography "A Poet in the Family" (1974) and the memoir "Goodbye, Twentieth Century" (2001) , offer insights into his personal life, experiences, and reflections on his literary career. Throughout his lifetime, Dannie Abse received numerous awards and honors for his contributions to literature. He was a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and served as President of the Poetry Society. Abse's work has left a lasting impact on the poetic landscape, earning him a reputation as one of Wales' most esteemed and influential poets. Tragically, Dannie Abse passed away on September 28, 2014, in London, leaving behind a rich body of work that continues to resonate with readers today. His poetry and writings continue to be celebrated for their emotional depth, thoughtfulness, and lyrical craftsmanship. ; Slight shelfwear. ; 21.5 x 13.6 x 1.5 cms; 180 pages.
