Christabel: Kubla Khan, A Vision; The Pains Of Sleep is a collection of three poems written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge in 1816. The first poem, Christabel, tells the story of a young woman who encounters a mysterious stranger in the woods and brings her home. However, the stranger turns out to be a supernatural being who tries to seduce Christabel. The second poem, Kubla Khan, is a dream-like vision of a magnificent palace and garden, inspired by a dream Coleridge had while taking opium. The final poem, The Pains Of Sleep, is a reflection on the agony of insomnia and the struggle to find peace in the midst of mental and physical pain. Coleridge’s use of vivid imagery and supernatural elements in these poems has made them enduring classics of English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
