Ivor Gurney (1890-1937) wrote some of the most anthologised poems of the First World War and composed some of the greatest works in the English song repertoire, such as 'Sleep.' Yet his life was shadowed by the trauma of the war and mental illness, and he spent his last 15 years confined to a mental asylum. In this book, Kate Kennedy presents a comprehensive biography of this extraordinary and misunderstood artist.
