Format:Paperback
This is one of the set books for the Open University's 'Approaching Literature' course (A210). It contains all of the poems required for the coursework and exam, and plenty more. It's essential for the course but is nice to have anyway for anyone who enjoys poetry from the Romantic era. The book also contains a section with brief notes on the poems and some biographical information on their authors. Using Amazon to buy this saved me money on the price the OU's bookshop were charging.

Format:Paperback
I was genuinely surprised by this book as I have never really been interested in poetry in whatever form it takes. However,the book includes such a variety of different forms that as I read not only the poems but also the lives of the authors I began to get absorbed in all the aspects of literacy pieces that it offered. As yet I am only at the beginning of my study and have glanced through with interest, Soon I will pick a certain few to analyse and digest what it really is all about.
Much of the language spoken is a quaint form of English, notably by Shakespeare, however points of reference are explained in the Appendix and referring to this helps better demonstrates the context of the pieces. I can see from the text I have much work before me the book has given me a 'taste' but it seems that I may have to 'acquire' the taste to begin to enjoy its content.
