Clere Trevor James Herbert Parsons (1908-1931) rejected Georgian poetry (which included the work of Rupert Brooke) calling it 'the swan-song of Victorian poetry.' Had he lived beyond his twenty-three years (a diabetic he died from pneumonia and a lack of insulin) it is thought that Parsons would have become as eminent as the Macspaunday four (Macniece, Spender, Auden and Day-Lewis). In so many ways he was the Stuart Sutcliffe figure of the movement. He was an editor of a number of student magazines including the influential Oxford Poetry and was an early proponent of American Modernism. Some wear, otherwise very good.
