Edward Thomas 1878-1917, published author, critic, and essayist,
died at 39, a casualty of World War I. At the suggestion of his
friend Robert Frost, Thomas began to write poetry and six months
after his death his first book of poems was published. As the prose
writer died, the poet was born, and it is on the poems that his
reputation still rests. This new biography--based on some 1,800 of
Thomas's letters--tells the story of his courtship, his restless
marriage, and his tormented need to choose between happiness with
his wife and children and the need to find his way as a writer
alone. With delicacy and understanding the book describes Thomas's
complex character and his pilgrimage on the road to self-discovery,
and reveals how the emergence of Thomas the poet became inevitable.
