First published in 1928, The Tower was Yeats's first collection
published after receiving the Nobel Prize in 1923, and it is
perhaps the major work that most cemented his reputation as one of
the foremost literary figures of the twentieth century. The titular
poem, 'The Tower', refers to Thoor Ballylee Castle, a Norman tower
that Yeats purchased in 1917, and which formed the basis of the
original cover design - evoked in the cover of this edition. The
collection also includes some of his most inventive and profound
work, and develops deep themes regarding life, love and myth. With
notes and extra material on Yeats's life and works, this edition
seeks to bring the collection to a greater readership and to offer
a more profound understanding of the great poet's work.
