About the Author:
JOHN DONNE was born in 1572. He entered a diplomatic career and served as private secretary to Sir Thomas Egerton. However, when he eloped with Egerton's underage niece, Anne More, in 1601, the couple was disinherited and they lived in poverty for many years. He died in 1631 after posing for a portrait in his funeral shroud.
From AudioFile:
This collection of poems from John Donne's prolific and varied career beautifully represents his towering ability and the far-ranging nature of his subject matter. Though Donne may be best known for his sometimes irreverent love poems, he also wrote sacred verse and pieces suitable for the Elizabethan court, of which he was a part. Although for some these poems need no introduction, most listeners will greatly appreciate the elegant, intelligent literary introductions found here. These comments show how different types of poems illustrate lifelong themes, while also highlighting Donne's wordplay and puns. The six-person ensemble does a superb job, reading at a perfect pace with a clarity that allows each work to resonate for listeners.
