The complete works of George Orwell's published poetry.
According to biographer D. J. Taylor, the young Orwell displayed 'an enthusiasm for poetry that in (his) formative years seems to have been as least as strong as any desire to write fiction'. Orwell's poetry is not among his best known - or most highly praised - work but nonetheless shares similar concerns to (and displays the dry sense of humour present in) his prose. Mere foothills in the range of Orwell's work perhaps - but building up to the summits later scaled.
