The Dolls

About this film

LibriVox volunteers bring you 10 recordings of The Dolls by William Butler Yeats. This was the Weekly Poetry project for Dcember 11, 2016. Read in English by Bruce Kachuk; CalmDragon; David Lawrence; Dafni Ma; Greg Giordano; Jude; Lee Ann Howlett; Matthew Datcher; Scotty Smith and Tomas Peter. William Butler Yeats was an Irish poet and one of the foremost figures of 20th-century literature. A pillar of both the Irish and British literary establishments, his earliest volume of verse was published in 1889, and its slow-paced and lyrical poems display Yeats's debts to Edmund Spenser, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and the poets of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. From 1900, Yeats's poetry grew more physical and realistic. In 1923, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
