About the Book

First appearing in 1893 this was the second collection of poetry by WB Yeats. This beautiful collection translates the two thousand year old mythos of Ireland into words which have inspired and touched readers from around the world. The famous poem The Lake Isle of Innisfree is included along with the essay WB Yeats and Today's Political Elite by Tim Dalgleish. The 'rose'of the title stands for Yeats' homeland but also for Maud Gonne the great unrequited love of his life. Romantic and symbolic, once read, the poems root themselves in one's psyche. This is the Celtic Twilight brought to life.
About the Author: William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) was one of the twentieth century's most striking and enduring poets and also an accomplished playwright and critic. He was co-founder, in 1904, of the Abbey Theatre, in Dublin, which was instrumental in the so-called Irish Literary Renaissance, staging plays by Sean O'Casey, JM Synge, Lady Gregory, Yeats himself and many others. He was an Irish Senator for two years and was the first Irishman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. His early poetry dealt with Irish mythology and the occult but in later he developed a realism which rejected many of his former metaphysical beliefs. Tim Dalgleish is the author of two volumes of poetry The Stones of Mithras and Penumbra, numerous plays and a book on acting called Playing Macbeth: An Actor's Journey into the Role. He has worked with theatre companies from RAT Theatre to Voices of the Holocaust. He was in the feature film Finding Fatimah and Imagine a short which received Special Mention at the Marbella International Film Festival. He regularly narrates audiobooks and writes a blog The Farthingstone Chronicles on his website lookingfortim.com.
