Browning’s dramatic romances let a single voice reveal a character and a story, often from Renaissance Italy. This edition opens with My Last Duchess, the Duke of Ferrara’s chilling account of his late wife, and includes Incident of the French Camp, The Patriot, Count Gismond, The Glove, In a Gondola, Waring and The Pied Piper of Hamelin.
The poems in which Browning perfected the dramatic monologue, a form poets still borrow today. Download the free EPUB.
