| book description |

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone, Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone . . . W. H. Auden was the consummate poet of love and heartbreak. Stop All the Clocks presents a selection of his best known, most lucid poems, poems that pitch human frailty against a persisting desire for love and belonging. Here are the anxieties that beset our waking and sleeping hours: the delirium of desire, the torture of unrequited love, the trauma of loss and displacement. And here, in these resonant, dazzling poems, is the understanding we might be looking for. 'W. H. Auden had the greatest gifts of any of our poets in the twentieth century.' James Fenton, New York Review of Books
