Reported Missing By Anna Gordon Keown

Anna Gordon Keown was an English poet and author during the First World War and earned a prestigious education in Dresden, Germany at Cheltenham Ladies College. Her most well-known among her works is her book the Cat Who Saw God,--a comic drama about a cat possessed by the Roman Emperor Nero who settles down with an old English woman--which TIME magazine listed as one of their "Books of the Week" in 1932. Her sonnet Reported Missing is another one of her most famous works about hope during the War and is currently still studied in British schools.
