Description
In Hospital is a poignant collection of poetry written by William Ernest Henley during his three-year stay at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. This early work, originally published in 1903, showcases Henley's unique style and explores themes of resilience and determination. Henley's experiences in hospital had a profound impact on his writing, leading to the creation of some of his most powerful poetry. The poems in this collection offer a glimpse into the mind of a man who refused to give up in the face of adversity, despite being forced to endure long periods of illness. This edition includes a brand new introductory biography, providing valuable context for readers looking to explore Henley's life and work.
