Young, F. Brett (Francis Brett)
Poems, 1916-1918
Produced by Al Haines
"Poems, 1916-1918" by Francis Brett Young is a collection of poetry written during the early 20th century, a time marked by the tumult of World War I and its aftermath. The poems reflect themes of love, loss, and the beauty of nature, exploring the emotional landscape of a world ravaged by war while simultaneously capturing moments of tenderness and introspection. In this poignant collection, Young expresses a deeply personal and emotional experience that intertwines the aesthetics of nature with the harsh realities of conflict. The poems range from reflections on fleeting beauty and the joys of love, such as in "Prothalamion," to somber meditations on death and the brutality of war, as seen in "On a Subaltern Killed in Action." Young’s work also contemplates the passage of time and memory, inviting readers to reflect on their own experiences of beauty, loss, and the eternal impacts of love against the backdrop of a changing world. Through rich imagery and lyrical language, he crafts a narrative that resonates with both personal longing and collective suffering, making the collection not just a record of his time, but a timeless exploration of the human condition.
