Book excerpt: 'Georgian Poetry' is an anthology of works by the eponymous school of poets that emerged during King George V's early reign. This book showcases the talent of the Georgian poets who are best known for their poetry's rich and descriptive language, their focus on everyday life, and their rejection of Victorian sentimentality. The anthology, edited by Edward Marsh and published by Harold Monro, contains poems from 1911 and 1912, and features works by Lascelles Abercrombie, Rupert Brooke, and D. H. Lawrence, among others. Here's an excerpt from D. H. Lawrence's 'Snapdragon': "She bade me follow to her garden where / The mellow sunlight stood as in a cup / Between the old grey walls; I did not dare / To raise my face, I did not dare look up."
