Published in 1898, the year of his death, this collection gathers the serious poems Carroll had first printed in Phantasmagoria, with fairy drawings by E. Gertrude Thomson. Lost love, dreams, memory and regret run through them, along with a tribute to Florence Nightingale written after the Crimean War.
A side of Carroll few readers know, tender and wistful rather than nonsensical. Download the free EPUB.
