The Land

By Vita Sackville-West

Book Overview

Vita Sackville-West's book length poem celebrates the landscapes and produce of the Weald of Kent. Divided into four parts--Winter, Spring, Summer, Autumn--it paints a vivid picture of the Kentish countryside across the year and the farming practices of the Kentish folk eking out a living on its unpredictable clayey soils. Published in 1926, the poem was a great success, winning the Hawthornden Prize for Literature and going through six print runs in three years.
