"Last Poems by A. E. Housman by A. E. Housman" is a poetry collection published in 1922. Compiled as Housman's lifelong friend and unrequited love lay dying in Canada, these forty-two poems span nearly three decades of the poet's work. Written between moments of creative burst and long silences, the collection includes wartime commemoration, celebrations of marriage, and meditations on mortality. Housman himself doubted he would write much more, making this volume
a deliberate farewell from an emotionally withdrawn man facing the twilight of his creative life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
