Synopsis

A sparkling collection of verse that captures fashion, memory, and the social mood of its era.

This edition presents a broad sampling of poems that travel from dance halls and ballrooms to quiet harbors, war memories, and intimate confessions. The lively range invites readers to feel the shaping threads of love, aspiration, and everyday life.

From lighthearted sketches of urban life to reflective meditations on time, this book offers a window into a world where words sway with music and memory. Each poem stands on its own, yet together they paint a portrait of social imagination, romance, and the quiet gravity of daily moments.

  • Vivid scenes of society, fashion, and the pleasures and pressures of leisure.
  • Love, doubt, and longing expressed in lyrical, accessible language.
  • Reflective pieces on memory, aging, and the passage of time.
  • Historical touches and wartime reflections that broaden the emotional landscape.

Ideal for readers who enjoy classic verse, period poetry, and literary glimpses into a bygone era.
