Written in an unassuming, lyrical prose, and fully intended for publication, Yeats' Autobiographies offers illuminating insight into the life and art of one of the modern world's greatest poets. It is in these pages that Yeats vividly portrays the people, places and events that shaped his work: childhood in the Silgo countryside; the literary life of Victorian London; close involvement in Ireland's turbulent politics, and friendship with some of the outstanding personalities of the time, including Wilde, Beardsley and Synge. Autobiographies also includes Yeats' important Nobel Prize speech.
