Keats was a poet who had many setbacks in his life. Unlike others who drowned in sorowness, Keats expressed himself in his poems, odes and letters.
John Keats, a man who met an early death at the hands of a fatal discease, lived more in his shortened life than most men ever could. I didn’t understand Keats at first and thought he had issues, which I still do, but approaching the end of his letters to Fanny, I could see the pain behind him and understood the meaning of what he was writing about.
Keats put his mind, emotions and thoughts in them. He describes, talks and tells about the beauty and demise of life. He sometimes gives to many details (especially about women), but he was just talking about the life he was longing to have.

Keats, as always is wonderful and this edition allowing us to read both poems and letters was a blessing when I bought it in Rome at the Keats Shelley House. I just cannot put 5 stars because of Wu's cringe introduction "We love poets who are hot, young and doomed. Keats was all three."
