With its rich imagery and emotional depth, this third edition enhances earlier versions with additional insights and refined passages that underscore the book's timeless themes. Richard Le Gallienne (1866-1947) was a British author and poet known for his advocacy of the arts and his belief in the transformative power of literature.
