Customer Reviews

A BIG NO for students - Rated 1/5
If you are an A level English Literature student i urge you to not buy this book- I was thoroughly disappointed with it and indeed tried to sell it off before I bought the much better source of "Out in the Dark". The poems are random, with a worryingly minimal supply of female poets. There's not even any dates on the poems so you cannot analyse the poets thoughts or purposes. If you just want a little collection to read this would be perfectly adaquet, but from an educational point of view do not touch it!


Wonderful little booklet! - Rated 5/5
They say that jobs usually don't go a-begging. Books normally wouldn't, either, but this one is the exception to confirm the rule.
And, speaking of a gem: this FWW poetry collection just lives up to your every expectation if you are looking for an introduction, that is.
Put out on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the Armistice, it features all those names that spring to mind when one thinks of the Great War's poetic heritage: Owen, Sassoon, Rosenberg, Thomas, Kipling, Blunden: they're all there waiting for you. Moreover, the booklet easily fits into your pocket during your literary explorations along the Western Front.
Wonders will never cease, but I wouldn't bet on that if I were you. So why wait? Press that 1-click order button and remember what they were talking about when "price/quality ratio" was the topic of conversation. Indispensable, a must-buy.


Wonderful little book, an essential buy - Rated 5/5
This little book has a vast treasury of poems of the first World War. All my favourites could be found, Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen, Robert Graves, Rupert Brooke and many others, totalling over 80 poems in all.

A very readable book, bringing back memories of poems read long ago. The scenes described are evocative, harrowing, heart-warming. Be prepared to be brought to tears.

I would highly recommend this book for any bookshelf and it is particularly appropriate as an introduction to war poetry.
