What is 100 Great Poems : Favourite Poems and Their Poets about?

189 pages : 28 cm, This selection covers many centuries - from the Old Testament of pre-Christianity, to the poets of the last decades of the 20th century. It covers hugely different landscapes - from the watery Nordic visions in Beowulf to the bomb craters of Anthem for Doomed Youth. And it ranges across vastly contrasting feelings - from the ecstatic yearnings of Wordsworth in Daffidols, to the exasperation in Ain't I a Woman? and the madcap humour of Spike Milligan's On the Ning Nang Nong. You will find love, grief, courage, outrage, nostalgia and wit within these pages. You may discover some unexpected responses within yourself. Enjoyment will at least be one of them. There are favourite lines from favourite poets - Donne, Shakespears, Milton, Wordsworth, Keats, Frost, Hardy, Plath, Hughes and many more. Each poem has brief biographical and historical notes to help place the poem in context
