Publisher's Summary
The Tower by William Butler Yeats. Performed by Denis Daly
This anthology of twenty poems was Yeats's first major collection after he received the Nobel Prize for literature in 1923.
The collection takes its title from the second poem and refers to Ballylee Castle, a Norman tower that Yeats purchased in 1917. The poet spent several summers at the castle with his family.
The general themes of the poems are the aging process, its destructive effect on both the bodies and the achievements of men, and the essentially dream-like quality of human recollection.
