Скачать или смотреть John Carey introduces 100 Poets: A Little Anthology

A poem seems a fragile thing. Change a word and it is broken. But poems outlive empires and survive the devastation of conquests. A scrap of a poem, a snatched phrase drifting through the mind, can evoke a sense of the extraordinary and the common place. Poems are like blessings, spoken for everyone.

Celebrated as an Oxford professor uniquely able to communicate the excitement of literature, John Carey, here introduces his anthology of verse 100 Poets, a delightful and accessible introduction to the very best that poetry can offer - all woven together with Carey's expert commentary.

100 Poets has been selected as a recommended read for UK National Poetry Day 2021. Find out more about the book here: https://yalebooks.co.uk/display.asp?K...
