'Love is my Religion': Keats on Love

Edited and Introduced by Duncan Wu, with a Preface by Bob Geldof

On 14 February 2018 a new book was published by the Keats-Shelley Memorial Association bearing the title 
Love is my Religion: Keats on Love.

This elegant 230-page paperback has been edited by Duncan Wu, Raymond Wagner Professor of Literary Studies at Georgetown University and a long-standing Trustee of the Keats-Shelley Memorial Association. The edition includes some of the most beautiful love poems written by the poet, along with a generous selection of letters addressed to his fiancée Fanny Brawne. It also features a preface by celebrated rock legend and activist Bob Geldof, who has had a substantial interest in John Keats's poetry throughout his life.

All proceeds of this special book will go to the Keats-Shelley House in Rome, which receives no official funding from either Britain or Italy. The book will be available exclusively from our gift shop in Rome, or from our online gift shop (see below).
