Publisher's Synopsis
A Book of Inscriptions is a collection of poems written by Esther Matson and published in 1914. The poems are inspired by various inscriptions found on tombstones, monuments, and other public spaces. Matson's poems explore themes of love, loss, and remembrance, and offer a glimpse into the lives of those who have passed away. The book is divided into sections, each devoted to a different type of inscription, such as epitaphs, memorial tablets, and war memorials. Matson's writing is characterized by its sensitivity and emotional depth, as well as its attention to the details of everyday life. A Book of Inscriptions is a moving and poignant tribute to the power of words to capture the essence of human experience.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
