What is The Dyer's Hand and Other Essays about?

Between 1927 And His Death In 1973, W.h. Auden Endowed Poetry In The English Language With A New Face. Or Rather, With Several Faces, Since His Work Ranged From The Political To The Religious, From The Urbane To The Pastoral, From The Mandarin To The Invigoratingly Plain-spoken. This Collection Presents All The Poems Auden Wished To Preserve, In The Texts That Received His Final Approval. It Includes The Full Contents Of His Previous Collected Editions Along With All The Later Volumes Of His Shorter Poems.
