About this ebook
You might think poetry is not for you – but I believe there is a poem for everyoneand this book seeks to present a wide variety of styles, themes, cultures and forms to ensure that as many perspectives as possible are catered for. The early epic poems such as Gilgamesh and The Odyssey are represented in fragments and some of the later great long poems such as The Divine Comedy and Paradise Lost are also included in extract. But if you have simpler tastes there are modern poems from the 20th century plus a set of three line Japanese haikus for those who like their poetry pithy and to the point. And the point is there is something for all to enjoy here. Why not dip in and try it. You might found an enduring passion you have never indulged and open up a whole new vista for your future reading.
