'Poetry is the blossom and the fragrancy of all human knowledge, human thoughts, human passions, emotions, language.' -Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
This elegant pocket edition brings together 260 best-loved, time-honoured poems in one hardback collection, beautifully presented with gold cover embossing and gilded page-edges.
This glorious celebration of classic poetry features verse from around the English-speaking world, penned by such names as William Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, Oscar Wilde, L. M. Montgomery and Walt Whitman. Carefully selected and divided into themed sections, the poems encompass the wealth of human experience - love, death, youth, old age, nature, travel and humour are all included in works that range from the 1500s onwards.
From Coleridge's fantastical Xanadu or the battlefields of John McCrae, to the ominous croaking of Poe's raven, this is a wonderful collection of poems containing the great and the good, the funny and the tragic, and everything in between.
