POEMS
WILLIAM BLAKE
William Blake is one of Britain's most fascinating and groundbreaking poets, as well as a renowned painter, engraver, radical, and mystic. Although Blake was dismissed as an eccentric by his contemporaries, his powerful and richly symbolic poetry has been a fertile source of inspiration to the many writers and artists who have followed in his footsteps. Collected here are some of the finest of Blake's works--including the complete poems from the famous Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience--together providing a singular picture of this unique genius.
