The charms of the poems in A Shropshire Lad, published in 1896, continue to resonate today. Housmans first collection and his signature work, the poems here mix the styles of traditional English ballads and classical verse, and evoke the idyllic English countryside, explore the nature of friendship, bravery, and the passing of youth, among other themes.
