MARRIAGE OF HEAVEN AND HELL (HB)

This gloriously illustrated facsimile edition, which opens with a poem, and takes the form of prose thereafter, is both a humorous satire on religion and morality, and expresses Blake's essential wisdom and philosophy. While perhaps lesser known than his Songs of Innocence and of Experience, it has strong echoes throughout pop culture, and is arguably more influential on later generations of writers, thinkers and musicians including Aldous Huxley, Salman Rushdie, Benjamin Britten, Olga Tokarczuk and Keith Haring.
