Elizabeths famous Sonnets from the Portuguese, based on their love affair, is included in its entirety.The poems are augmented with a generous selection of the marvelous letters the Brownings wrote to each other.Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acidfree creamcolored paper, with fullcloth cases with twocolor foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, Europeanstyle halfround spines, and a fullcolor illustrated jacket.
