| Summary | "Green Bays. Verses and Parodies" by Arthur Quiller-Couch is a collection of poetry written during the early 20th century. This work showcases a variety of poetic forms, including verses infused with wit and parody, reflecting Quiller-Couch's literary prowess and his experiences at Oxford. The collection explores themes of love, nature, and nostalgia, often with a humorous or critical edge. The book presents a rich tapestry of verses that range from meditative reflections in pieces like "In a College Garden" to playful parodies of well-known literary works. Quiller-Couch writes about the fleeting nature of life and love, while also incorporating elements of local color through his Irish melodies and humorous anecdotes from university life. Each poem captures a moment or sentiment, using vivid imagery and clever wordplay to draw the reader into his world, thus creating a delightful exploration of human experiences and emotions.
