Love Songs and Sonnets - Peter Washington

Descriere Love Songs and Sonnets - Peter Washington

In the same intimate format as Everyman's bestselling Love Poems, this collection of songs, sonnets, and lyric poems that focus on love in the widest sense--and which encompass relationships of all kinds--includes a variety of delights by everyone from Petrarch to Keats, from Elinor Wylie to John Updike. \nThe Everyman's Library Pocket Poets hardcover series is popular for its compact size and reasonable price which does not compromise content. Love Songs and Sonnets includes Ronsard's famous sonnets to Helene, Dorothy Parker's sardonic reflections on men and Anne Bradstreet's touching poem To my Husband. Shakespeare is here, of course, and Burnas, whose comparison of his love to a red, red rose remains one of the most celebrated of all poetic similes. This edition also includes a variety of delights by everyone from Thomas Wyatt to Langston Hughes, from Aphra Behn to John Updike. With a Foreword by Peter Washington, and an index of first lines.
