The Nation's Favourite Poems

Great variety of poems. A gift for my husband.

This is a very good selection of poems which will satisfy everyone. Obviously some will not be happy with some but it has a good range of traditional and modern poems. Enjoyable.

Best point: a good collection of poems, something to suit everyone. I bought this as a Christmas present for my 10 year old great nephew, who write his own poems and deserves encouragement. It looks ideal for him as he can dip in and out as he becomes older.Bad point: obviously this is a paperback edition, but even taking that into account the cover is rather flimsy and, presumably as a result, was delivered with a crease in one corner. It was particularly annoying for me as it was a gift for someone else.

Lovely book. Speedy delivery.

All superb, thanks Griff rhys jones for choosing them.

I ordered this for a friend who had "never got into poetry" - well she HAS now, and in fact she was so enthusiastic that I have since ordered Palgrave's Golden Treasury for her. A poetry-lover myself, I get a real thrill when somebody else "catches the bug", and this little compilation is a great introduction, since, by it's very nature, it's an eclectic anthology of accessible work. Ideal as a gift for someone who may not have studied English in-depth but simply "knows what they like". Highly recommended by me and, more importantly, my friend who now reads a poem every night before switching the light out! :-)

As the title suggests, this collection is the result of a nationwide survey conducted by the Bookworm programme. It includes many old favourites, popular anthology items, but also some not so well-known contributions. As an English teacher having copies of most of these poems in other editions, I wouldn't normally have considered buying this collection, but on holiday in a lonely croft in Scotland I came across it, and was delighted to rediscover poems I had forgotten or hadn't read for ages and to be introduced to new gems. I was alternately moved, amused and inspired. To have all these poems in one place makes this an excellent book to take on holiday or to have on your bedside table. I thoroughly recommend it.

Not a bad selection of poems but as with all books short stories and CDs you won’t like every thing included unless you can compile it yourself.

Excellent selection of favorite poems of the general public.

Perfect quality and rapid delivery. Just what the doctor ordered!

Tengo este libro y lo volví a comprar para un regalo.

Lovely collection... it’s like coming home to an old friend!
