Rupert Brooke (1887-1915)
Rupert Brooke
“Rupert Brooke, isn’t it a romantic name?” wrote Lytton Strachey to Virginia Woolf, after first meeting the man who became the “star” of an exceptionally brilliant generation. But behind the facade of the stunning looks and the golden-boy image a very different Brooke was concealed that was far from romantic – and is now revealed in this utterly candid biography. After cutting a swathe through his contemporaries at Rugby and Cambridge, Brooke became the central figure in two distinct coteries –

This Halcyon Classics ebook contains the poetry of Rupert Brooke.

Friends and Apostles: The Correspondence of Rupert Brooke and James Strachey, 1905-1914
The correspondance between the poet Rupert Brooke (1887-1915) and his friend James Strachey, later the primary English translator of the works of Sigmund Freud, here appears in print for the first time. These various letters – often irreverent, sometimes humorous, and so revealing that Brook’s literary executors long resisted their publication, illuminate one of the last pieces of the complex puzzle of Brooke’s life. Brooke wrote more frequently to Strachey than to anyone other than his mother,

Forever England: The Life of Rupert Brooke
Rupert Brooke became for many the embodiment of a generation that was all but wiped out between 1914 and 1918. He became a legend largely due to one of his sonnets: “If I should die, think only this of me / That there’s some corner of a foreign field that is forever England”. The poem, and all that it represented, became the focal point of a nation’s grief for its lost youth. Brooke died in 1915 on board ship in the Aegean Sea on his way to fight at Gallipoli. Winston Churchill wrote his obituar
