Description & Specifications

Have you ever wondered how to truly interpret poetry? Have you been confused by meter, rhyme, and stanzas? Poet and author Ruth Padel unveils poetic style, structure, and meaning in this comprehensive anthology of contemporary poems, in language accessible to everyone. Based on her popular column in The Independent on Sunday, each poem is accompanied by an informative and entertaining in-depth text by Padel. The collection features an array of contemporary poets, such as Carol Ann Duffy and Seamus Heaney, covering universal themes like love, sex, family, and death, as well as more peculiar issues, such as loneliness while listening to the shipping forecast. A poem for every week of the year, Padel’s exploration of literary form expertly combines technical analysis with inventive, creative interpretation – certain to make every reader fall in love with contemporary poetry. 'It reverses the notion that contemporary poetry is "difficult": all it takes is a little effort and the rewards are great' Sunday Times.
