Description
Ted Hughes' By Heart: 101 Poems to Remember In an age where memorising poems seems lost to us, Ted Hughes offers a solution. His introduction explains how using a memory system can help overcome this problem, making it easier with practice. This collection of 101 poems is carefully chosen to be both personal favourites and well-suited to the method. The poems span four centuries, featuring some of the most enduring voices in English literature, from Shakespeare and Keats to Thomas Hardy and Seamus Heaney. By Heart provides a unique opportunity to exercise and train your memory in a pleasurable way. While some poems may be more challenging than others, all will become treasured once they are committed to memory. This edition is part of a series of anthologies edited by poets such as Don Paterson and Simon Armitage, featuring an attractive new design that complements the collection of classic poems within.
