Synopsis

Do you remember the famous opening lines, 'Tyger tyger, burning bright'? Or 'Shall I compare these to a summer's day?' But would you be able to name the poems or the poets? The English language is jam-packed with wonderful verses that we've all heard at some point, but probably forgotten. "I Wandered Lonely As a Cloud" will remind you of all those long-forgotten poems that you were taught at school, together with mini-biographies and introductions. This title includes: "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" - Coleridge; "If" - Rudyard Kipling; "Dulce et Decorum Est" - Wilfred Owen; "Song of Myself" - Walt Whitman; "Digging" - Seamus Heaney; and "Not Waving But Drowning" - Stevie Smith. Complete with an index of famous lines as well as authors, any poetry enthusiast will love the collection of best-loved poems alongside the lively commentary. "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud", is a perfect addition to any poetry lover's collection.
