About this book
LibriVox volunteers bring you 16 recordings of On Spenser’s “Faery Queen” by Sir Walter Raleigh. This was the Weekly Poetry project for January 25, 2026. ------ Raleigh's poetry is written in the relatively straightforward, unornamented mode known as the plain style. C. S. Lewis considered Raleigh one of the era's "silver poets". His writing contains strong personal treatments of themes such as love, loss, beauty, and time. Most of his poems are short lyrics that were inspired by actual events. - Summary by Wikipedia
