W.B. Yeats's Selected Poems is edited with an introduction and notes by Timothy Webb in Penguin Modern Classics.
W B Yeats (1865-1939) was one of the great and innovative poets of
the twentieth century. Much of his most vigorous verse on love,
sex, Irish and international politics, the complexities of the
occult and the 'sedentary toil' of poetry was produced in the years
between his fiftieth birthday in 1915 and his death in 1939.

First World War Poetry, also available in Penguin Classics.
Timothy Webb is Professor of English at the University of Bristol.
