David Jones is regarded by many to be one of the great writers of the modern age. T.S. Eliot called "In Parenthesis" "a work of genius" and W.H. Auden wrote that "The Anathemata" "is probably the finest long poem written in English in this century". In addition to generous selections from these two book-length poems, this volume includes "The Tribune's Visitation", "The Tutelar of the Place", "The Hunt", and an except from the title poem from "The Sleeping Lord", the books Jones published shortly before his death.
