Format:Paperback
Firstly, this book does NOT have copies of the poems in! I didn't realise this and was slightly disappointed when it came. Though, if you look really hard, you can find the poems online.
That said, everything else about this book was very useful, particularly for A Level coursework, giving the basis of some ideas but not doing the work for you, so no risk of plagiarism. It has some ideas for practice essays as well for those doing it as an exam text. It has an extra, in depth, analysis of a few poems which is helpful if you do get to pick and choose which you're using, and for everything else has some 'key quotes' along with the analysis.
Definitely recommended as a revision guide, especially for AQA's Struggle for Identity and Love through the Ages A Level courses.

The York Notes Advanced for The Worlds Wife are so useful when studying the anthology. It goes through each individual poem and highlights the important quotes and themes throughout. There are also sections dedicated to themes etc so that you can successfully compare poems with each other. Brilliant product!

Bought this for my English course, it has everything I need to know, and at half the price it's sold most other places.
