Summary

Unlock Your Inner Poet: A Treasury of Timeless Verse

Learning by heart is the best way to experience a poem, but the method has fallen from favour as part of the educational system. This small collection of the best English poems offers the reader the chance to re-engage with poetry. Filled with favourites, and thoughtfully selected by Laura Barber (editor of Penguin’s Poems for Life and the forthcoming Penguin’s Poems for Love) this anthology is an essential addition to everyone’s repertoire.

About The Author

Laura Barber

Laura Barber is not a poet, but she has spent the last few years completely immersed in verse. As the editor of Penguin’s Poems for Life and Poems for Love, she has lived, breathed and dreamed poetry - in libraries and on lawns, on beaches and in bed - and can testify to the profound effect that poetry can have on your life. More prosaically, she also publishes contemporary literature and is writing a book. She lives in London.
