Jessica Hope "The Farmer's Bride" by Charlotte Mary Mew is a collection of poetry published in the early 20th century. This book features a series of poignant and thought-provoking poems that explore themes such as love, loss, and the complexities of human relationships. Through personal and often introspective verses, Mew captures the emotional landscape of her time, reflecting on both the beauty and the suffering that accompany life. The titular poem, "The Farmer's Bride," recounts the story of a marriage that begins with promise but quickly devolves into alienation and fear. The farmer's bride, described as a creature of innocence and nature, becomes increasingly withdrawn, evoking both sympathy and tension within the narrative. The other poems in the collection navigate various experiences and emotions, from childhood memories to reflections on mortality and the passage of time. Mew's language is rich and evocative, inviting readers to reflect on their own experiences of love and loss while considering broader societal themes. The overall tone captures a delicate balance of realism and a yearning for connection amidst the isolation felt in different aspects of life.
