Description
Bright Wings, Dappled Things brings together the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins, one of the greatest poets of the Victorian era, with the photography of Francis Browne, a renowned Jesuit artist. This unique volume features a selection of Hopkins' most popular poems, accompanied by a short commentary that places the poems in their historical context. The book also includes previously unseen Hopkins memorabilia from the Irish Jesuit Archives.
The result is a beautifully balanced book that will appeal to anyone interested in poetry, photography, or both. With its nostalgic quality, it makes a special gift for those who appreciate the intersection of art and faith.
