Publisher's Synopsis
This selection covers many centuries - from the old Testament of pre- Christianity, to the poems 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 'Daffodils', 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, we guarantee will at least be one of them.
