Hardy’s 1914 collection contains some of his greatest poems: Channel Firing, where gunnery practice wakes the dead, and The Convergence of the Twain, on the Titanic and its iceberg. At its heart are the elegies written after the death of his first wife, Emma, revisiting the Cornish coast where they had met four decades before.
