W.H. Auden. About the House. 1966.
First Edition. Published by Faber & Faber in London in 1966, About the House is among Auden's finest late collections. The volume centers on "Thanksgiving for a Habitat," a sequence inspired by the rooms of his Austrian home in Kirchstetten, alongside previously uncollected poems. Characteristically witty, philosophical, and formally assured, it reflects the mature voice of one of the twentieth century's defining poets.
Condition: Very good.
