carmenx9's review against another edition
5.0
The four manuscript scans at the back of the evolution of Anthem for Doomed Youth is very reassuring proof that no one gets poetry right the first time (that first like changed a lot, the last line not at all)
Almost loses half a star for the editor being all "now we don't know WHY Owen never expressed an interest in women and spoke so much about men in non-war poems", but if you ignore the intro the pieces speak for themselves
