In The Seven Woods
by W. B. Yeats
A short book of poetry and a play by Yeats on Irish mythological themes.
"In the Seven Woods is a volume of poems by William Butler Yeats, published in 1904.
This is the first book of Yeats' "middle period," in which he eschewed his previous Romantic ideals and preference for pre-Raphaelite imagery, in favor of a more spare style and an anti-romantic poetic stance similar to that of Walter Savage Landor.
The poem Adam's Curse, however, continues to reflect the old ideals. This is also the most popular and frequently anthologized of the poems from this volume."
