Book excerpt: The works of World War I English poets are a huge focus of interest as anniversaries crop over the next four years. But one poet has been neglected, with his poems not in print since Leonard and Virginia Woolf published them in 1926. Ferenc Békássy was Hungarian but was educated in Britain and wrote in English. He was a close friend of Rupert Brooke and in love with the same girl, Noel Olivier. George Gomori, a Cambridge academic and Hungarian, has collected most of Békássy's poems, along with some newly discovered letters between Békássy and Noel Olivier, as well as other friends including John Maynard Keynes. There is a poignant end to the story. Having Keynes' advice not to return home to fight for his country, he was killed on the Russian front a few months after joining up.
