Pennies on my Eyes: Poems by Wilfred OwenPaperback, 4 November 2018

Pennies on my Eyes, the latest addition to our classic poems series, is a centennial collection of Wilfred Owen's poetry illustrated by Reading-based artists. The town made its contribution to Owen's becoming a poet through the encouragement he received from Professor Edith Morley at the University of Reading while based in the nearby village of Dunsden. Each inspired by a work in this memorial volume, the artists offer their unique responses for this celebratory gathering of Owen's most famous war poems, published on 4 November 2018, the 100th anniversary of the poet's death on the Western Front at the Sambre-Oise Canal just one week before the Armistice.
