Harold Monro - Poet of the New Age (Hardcover, Reissue)

Troubled by his complex sexuality, Monro was a tormented soul whose
aim was to serve the cause of poetry. Hibberd's revealing and
beautifully-written biography will help rescue Monro from the
graveyard of literary history and claim for him the recognition he
deserves. Poet and businessman, ascetic and alcoholic, socialist
and reluctant soldier, twice-married yet homosexual, Harold Monro
probably did more than anyone for poetry and poets in the period
before and after the Great War, and yet his reward has been near
oblivion. Aiming to encourage the poets of the future, he
befriended, among many others, T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound and the
Imagists; Rupert Brooke and the Georgians; Marinetti the Futurist;
Wilfred Owen and other war poets; and the noted women poets,
Charlotte Mew and Amma Wickham.
