W. B. Yeats: A Life II

The second and final volume in Roy Foster's acclaimed biography of W. B. Yeats covers the second half of Yeats's life, taking in his controversial political involvements, continued supernatural experiments, his extraordinary marriage, a series of love affairs, and the writing of his greatest poetry. Life and work are woven closely together to create a rich, new, uniquely authoritative, and immensely involving treatment of one of the greatest lives of modern times.
