From the
first flush of love, through
courtship and vows of eternal
fidelity, to serving the writs
and drowning your sorrows, The
Nation's Favourite Love Poems
will meet all your romantic
requirements.
In this
selection of 100 popular
poems, poets of every age
consider that most universal
of themes: love. As well as
traditional lovers' favourites
such as Elizabeth Barrett
Browning's 'How do I love
thee?' and Shakespeare's
'Shall I compare thee to a
summer's day?' there are
contemporary voices such as
Adrian Mitchell, Wendy Cope
and John Fuller, whose erudite
yet salacious 'Valentine'
would melt the most frigid
heart. There are even poems
for those more melancholic
moments, Hardy's haunting
'After a Journey', for
example, and Larkin's poignant
'Love Songs in Age'.
So,
wherever you are in the tunnel
of love, dip into this book
and you will be reassured to
discover that at one time or
another a poet has been there
before you.
