<p><b>'Outstanding... The best short introduction I have come across' <i>Sunday Times</i></b><br><br>When he died at the age of just twenty-five, few imagined John Keats would one day be considered among the greatest poets of all time.<br><br>Taking nine of Keats's best-known poems, Lucasta Miller excavates their backstories and, in doing so, resurrects the real Keats: an outsider from a damaged family whose visceral love of language allowed him to change the face of English literature for ever.<br><br>Combining close-up readings with the story of his brief existence, Miller shows us how Keats crafted his groundbreaking poetry and explains why it continues to speak to us across the centuries.<br><br><b>'One never wants Keats's life to end so soon; I didn't want this book to end, either' <i>TLS </i>Books of the Year<br><br>'Irresistible... [Miller]digs into the backstories of her subject's most famous poems to uncover aspects of his life and work that challenge well-worn romantic myths' <i>Wall Street Journal</i></b></p>
