The Complete Poetry of Robert Louis Stevenson - Robert Louis Stevenson

Descriere The Complete Poetry of Robert Louis Stevenson - Robert Louis Stevenson

\nRobert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet, essayist and travel writer, whose reputation came primarily from his novels and essays, including Treasure Island and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. He is ranked among the 30 most translated authors in the world, ahead of Oscar Wilde and Edgar Allan Poe. Although his notoriety derives largely from his novels and essays, Stevenson produced a large collection of poetry that has been compared to that of William Ernest Henley and Rudyard Kipling. The principle object of most of his poetry is to capture a moment, be it a memory, an emotion, or some fleeting experience, and to draw his readers wholly into that moment. This is a complete collection of Stevenson's poetry, most of which deals with themes of childhood, friendship, travel, nostalgia and the sea, and includes his well-known Underwoods series.
