Really, I must have read half of this huge collection of work, or more. I devoured it as a poetry discovering teenager. I had an older edition, with padded covers of fake leather, in red, with embossed writing.

Some of them are great, many go on WAY too long, but 4 stars for the effect this tome had on my life. (

I had a friend who loved Shelley, and how I mocked her for it. Until I grew older, and fell in love with his excess. (

The complete poems of Shelley, perhaps the most important and radical of the English Romantics.

Disambiguation notice

This title includes all the many different editions claiming to be the 'complete poems - or poetical works' of Shelley. Left uncombined are the works clearly indicating that they are one of a two volume edition. There may be an argument for combining 'Collected Poems' but this has not (yet) been done.
There are separate titles for 'Selected Poems..' - obviously not complete, and 'Poems/Poetical Works of ..' which may or may not be so. Selections are not the same as the complete works and so would better not combined here.
