About the Book
Sonnets of Love Lost, Love Sought and Love Found is Marshall’s first published collection of original poems since 1983. In the present work the poet has taken one hundred and eighteen of his sonnets written over a twenty-four-year period and assembled them into a three-part sequence in which the sadness and joy of love unfold in a moving display of imagery, meter and rhyme. The lover of poetry will delight in the result of applying a centuries-old form to an eternal theme: love poems that can be read and enjoyed again and again, and which resonate in the heart and mind of the modern reader.
