Thomas Chatterton (1752-1770) wrote tons of moving and intelligent verse all before he was 20 years old. His life-story and scandal is worth investigating for sure, but move past it and actually read some of his Rowley poems. There is a reason the Romantics valued him so highly. He is also known for the painting of his death by Henry Wallis, the Pre-Raphaelite, which hangs, if I remember correctly, in the Tate Britain and which is among the most moving of images in that whole treasure-horde. More information about the reader can be found at his website: www.mischawillett.com
