This slim exhibition volume was written by staff at the Britten-Pears Foundation and explores Britten's eclectic relationship with poetry. From Sophocles to TS ELiot, his mature works abound with settings of verse by these writers and many more. An unpaginated book that has been read, but is in very good condition. Pictorial softcover. Binding has minimal wear. The pages are undamaged but may have some slight creasing but this is minimal. It is clean and bright inside with a little wear to edges. It contains many colour images. There is no owner inscription. A neat little copy.
