'Maud and Other Poems' is a collection of eight poems, including the famous 'The Charge of the Light Brigade.' Through his works, Tennyson explores a range of subjects, such as love, death, marriage, regret, God, and war. The title poem follows the narrator's love for Maud, from its initial unsteadiness to its all-consuming passion. Tennyson's poetic skills move the poem from wistful lament to hot-blooded action. A superb read for fans of one of the greatest poets of all time.-
