LAST POEMS AND PLAYS
By
The final volume of Yeats is an important item, and there is some vital and characteristic poetry contained therein. There are many that belong with the ballad genre; there are many that reflect on life and love, and that show Yeats as an old man, looking back with some wit and humor, but with a sense of disillusionment. Two plays are included, Purgatory and The Death of Cuchulain.
