Description

In the summer of 1820, Keats published this collection, his third and final volume of poetry. A few months earlier, he had started coughing up blood; the following February, he would die of tuberculosis in Rome, aged just twenty-five. This volume contains his greatest work, written in an astonishing burst of creative genius in 1819. It includes ''Lamia'', his tale of love and betrayal in ancient Corinth; the haunting medieval romance of ''The Eve of St Agnes''; and his six famous odes, now considered among the most famous verse in the language.
