About this book
Blake pairs his Songs of Innocence with the darker Songs of Experience to show 'the two contrary states of the human soul'—childlike joy and wonder set against a world of cruelty, poverty, and repression. Deceptively simple lyrics like 'The Lamb,' 'The Tyger,' and 'London' carry profound spiritual and social meaning, and Blake originally engraved and hand-colored each page as a fusion of poetry and visionary art. Radiant, mysterious, and endlessly interpreted, these poems are among the most beloved in English and reveal one of literature's most original imaginations. A cornerstone of Romantic poetry, they reward a lifetime of rereading.
