Description
John Donne's Holy Sonnets explore the poet's deep-seated fears and spiritual crises. Written between 1609 and 1611, these nineteen poems were not published until two decades later, just two years after Donne's death. They navigate his doubts in search of divine comfort and assurance, grappling with the reality of mortality and his own unworthiness. Donne's poems are a powerful expression of anxiety and spiritual searching. With an introduction by poet John Daniel Thieme, this collection offers a unique insight into the poet's inner world. This edition brings together the complete Holy Sonnets, providing a valuable opportunity for readers to engage with Donne's profound and thought-provoking work. Published in 2014, this paperback edition features an introduction that sets the poems in context, making it an ideal choice for anyone interested in exploring Donne's poetry.
