Lovely. One of those spontaneous irresistible purchases when I only went into the bookshop to browse! A splendid eclectic collection of poems, well chosen, witty and thoughtful. I've really enjoyed picking it up over these last few weeks. 😊

A very varied range of poems, indeed. We did this for school more than a few years ago, but I still remember some of the poems fondly. :) La belle Dame sans Merci..and that 'throw your fond in a pond' one!

Was forced to read this in class. The process of analysing the poems was both a yes and no for me. Poems were witty and its meanings subtle.

Some really good Poems - we had to do it for our IGCSE literature exam and they're great to annotate.
