Title: Selected poetry
Description: This new selection includes the final book from the unfairly neglected narrative poem "The Wanderings of Oisin" and a number of lyrics from Yeat's work as poetic dramatist, together with other short pieces which have not achieved canonical status. It breaks new ground by allowing the reader to engage with a dozen poems in alternative versions; in many other cases it provides significant variants, so that Yeat's struggle to revise his poetry and to "remake" himself can be experienced with unusual immediacy.
