The Poems of London gather a remarkably wide range of poems inspired by the historic city, from the bustling medieval streets to the multicultural metropolis it is today. The pantheon of classic English poets, from Shakespeare and Donne to Wordsworth and Blake, as well as T. S. Eliot and Ted Hughes, offer their views on London along with tributes from famous visitors such as Arthur Rimbaud, Samuel Beckett, and Sylvia Plath. Here too are poetic contributions from a range of immigrants and the children of immigrants, including Linton Kwesi Johnson, Fleur Adcock, Patience Agbabi, and Booker Prize winner Bernardine Evaristo. All of London's famous landmarks, from the Thames to the Tower, are touched on in this vibrant collection, as characters from the bustling streets, from princes to pub-goers and pickpockets, wander through these pages. The result is a captivating portrayal of an endlessly diverse and fascinating place.
