Customer Reviews
Norton Athology of Poetry - Rated This book has all the poems that is required in University. The print of each poem is clear and easy to read. Poetic licence - Rated like in life, good but flawed. As a collection it is exceptional, with such a variety of some poets better work, however, the cumbersome ham-handed indexing at the begining leaves something to be desired. it is indexed in the order of poets date of birth, of course suggesting anyone who reads or has to study the books contence know the date of every single poets birth. leading of course to many fun hours of frustration trying to find a single poem by a poet in the very centre of the book. the up side is in the back the poets are listed in rank of surname first, and as well as some basics on the poets lives there is a page reference telling you where the poets are in the book. Norton - Rated Norton series are always great for students, have lots of info! This is a great book for someone studying poetry, has a good collections of poems from the main poets! Has a few from more modern poets and has been revised to include more from women and others that have before been the minority! A good collection for a back ground on poetry, though not the best for carrying round, as is huge!! Hannah. A University Text That Can Be Enjoyed By Anyone - Rated This book may look duanting at first sight but don't be put off! Even if you never read poetry this book has something for you. From Gilbert and Sullivan extracts, try and read those out loud, to 'The Owl and the Pussycat' this book isn't just ironic prose for english students with to much time on their hands. Of course there are extensive sections for the greats; Chuacer, Milton, Shakespeare, Tennyson, i think you've got the point. You'll also discover poets you've never heard of, Louis MacNiece is one of mine, just by opening up at a random page, more fun than doing it with the bible. And if that isn't enough this is a big book on your shelf which makes people think you are clever as hell, or maybe just a ponce. So buy this book and let your friends decide which one you are.
