He was a poet of much greater scope than that: in addition to publishing \u003cem\u003eA Map of Verona\u003c\/em\u003e, his 1946 collection, he was a fine translator, particularly from the Italian, and wrote acclaimed radio plays, including an ambitious adaptation of Moby-Dick and a series of six plays featuring his comic creation Hilda Tablet. On his death he left a sheaf of uncollected poems that had appeared in magazines or were in manuscript. These, together with all Reed's published work, a group of translations and a selection of songs from the radio plays, make up this \u003cem\u003eCollected Poems\u003c\/em\u003e. Jon Stallworthy, poet, critic and biographer of Wilfred Owen, has included a biographical and critical introduction to this profound, witty and humane poet.\u003cbr\u003e\n               Cover image 'Troops Resting' (detail) by Edward Ardizzone.
