David Jones (1895-1974) was a painter and poet increasingly recognized as one of the most important and original voices in British modernism. His poem In Parenthesis was described by T.S. Eliot as “a work of genius” and by Stephen Spender as “the most monumental work of poetic genius to come out of World War I”. His many admirers included W.H. Auden, Herbert Read, and W.B. Yeats.
