Siegfried Sassoon: Soldier, Poet, Lover, Friend

Years in the making, biographer and foremost scholar Jean Moorcroft Wilson has written the first complete biography of arguably the greatest English-language war poet.

Hailed as €œinvaluable€ by the Times and €œthorough and perceptive€ by the Observer, Siegfried Sassoon encompasses the poet€s complete life and works, from his patriotic youth that led him to the frontline, and flamboyant love affairs. This single-volume opus also includes never-before-published poems that have only just come to light through the author€s work. With over a decade€s research, and unparalleled access to Sassoon€s private correspondence, Wilson presents the complete portrait, both elegant and heartfelt, of an extraordinary man, and an extraordinary poet.
