First published in 1923, Exile and Other Poems is an important,
poignant collection from one of the foremost Imagist war poets.
Penned after witnessing the horrors of the frontline during the
First World War, Aldington’s brutal, honest verse lays bare
unimaginable experiences. The first part of the collection,
‘Exile’, explores the poet’s survivor’s guilt,
post-traumatic stress and sense of alienation. The collection
continues with a ‘Songs for Puritans’ and ‘Songs for
Sensualists’, pastiches of seventeenth and eighteenth-century
love poetry, and a series of more personal poems exploring the
natural world, from which Aldington drew reassurance. Enriched with
a fascinating introduction and explanatory notes by leading
Aldington scholars Elizabeth Vandiver and Vivien Whelpton, this
centenary edition seeks to place Exile firmly back on the map of
war poetry, from which it has been missing for too long.
