In Vallombrosa: A Sequence is a poetry collection written by Adeline Sergeant and first published in 1897. The book is named after the Vallombrosa Abbey, a Benedictine monastery located in the Tuscan Apennines, which serves as a setting for some of the poems. The collection consists of 22 poems that explore themes of nature, spirituality, and love. Sergeant’s writing is characterized by its vivid imagery and lyrical style, which evoke a sense of tranquility and contemplation. Many of the poems in In Vallombrosa: A Sequence are written in free verse, with irregular meter and rhyme schemes. The collection also includes several sonnets, which follow a more traditional form. Overall, In Vallombrosa: A Sequence is a beautifully written collection of poems that celebrates the beauty and serenity of nature, while also exploring deeper spiritual and emotional themes. It remains a notable work in the canon of Victorian poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
