Women Romantic Poets - Volume 2

L. E. L. was the pen-name of Letitia Elizabeth Landon (1802–1838), a "wild and wayward girl" whose outspoken poems about love, hypocrisy, social injustice, religions, and death were discussed and debated avidly during her short life, but lost favor afterwards as Victorian notions of propriety became dominant. This wide-ranging collection includes 60 of her most characteristic poems. Introduction
