William Blake’s poetry anthology ‘Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience’ was first published together in 1794. In 2012, at Event City, Trafford Centre, Manchester, contemporary Renaissance Man and surrealist artist Mark Sheeky painted a new series of watercolour illustrations for these famous words.
This audiobook edition includes all of Blake’s classic poems from those volumes, read by 21st century surrealist artist Mark Sheeky. The text has been carefully transcribed from an original edition of Blake’s work, retaining all of the original spellings and punctuation. The result is a new definitive version of this English classic; a visionary artwork that combines 18th century text and 21st century expression.
