Rezensionen

'Inspired ... With excellent commentary from beginning to end, this useful book is cheaper than therapy ... A wonderful volume for every home' Bel Mooney, Daily Mail

'Packages up some of the most beautiful and beloved of poems (from Horace to Clive James, by way of Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson and WB Yeats) ... Read a poem a day and it could save your sanity as much as any fancy new theory ... Above all, the poems remind us what it is to be human in any age, and that we are not alone' Sunday Times
