Description: "[The] third volume completes both the Cambridge Edition of D. H. Lawrence's Poems and the Cambridge Edition of the Works of D. H. Lawrence, in which it is the fortieth volume. The uncollected poems and early versions presented in the volume offer a new idea of the scope and scale of his verse-writing. The poems that Lawrence saw published in seven collections during his lifetime, and that appeared after his death in a further two collections, Nettles (1930) and Last Poems (1932), are assembled, edited and annotated in Volumes I and II of the Cambridge Edition of The Poems. Volume III gives access to more than 120 poems which Lawrence either chose not to collect or was, for various reasons, unable to collect during his lifetime, and which have therefore been largely neglected. The volume also includes more than 190 early and variant versions"--
