Poems is Wilfred Owens only volume of poetry, first published posthumously in 1920 and edited by his friend and mentor, Siegfried Sassoon. Owen is regarded as one of the best poets of World War I and composed nearly all of his poems in just over a year, between August 1917 and September 1918. Owen was virtually unknown at the time of his death, yet his poetic account of a soldiers experience of war has shaped our impression of the horrors of the Western Front. This collection includes the well-known Anthem for Doomed Youth and Dulce et Decorum Est.
