Book from ‘La Casa de Robert Graves’ selected for Gran Meliá Victoria Library Collection.

Selected Poems: An essential selection from the range and bulk of Robert Graves’s poetry, edited by Ulster poet Michael Longley. This edition restores Graves to view as a major twentieth century poet, and demonstrates his manifold achievement as war poet, as love poet, and as – in the round – a secular visionary whose poems are ‘inimitable, eccentric marvels – some of which are extraordinary, many are masterly, all are like nothing else ever written’ (Randall Jarrell).

La Casa de Robert Graves: British poet and author Robert Graves (1895-1985) lived in Deià, Mallorca, from 1929 until his death. He is buried under a great cypress tree in the lovely churchyard next to the church. His house in Deià was acquired by the Fundació Robert Graves and has been refurbished and adapted for visitors.
