New Faber Book of Love Poems by James Fenton

Now for the new millennium comes an entirely new edition, personally selected and introduced by James Fenton, a Whitbread-winning poet himself, rightly famed for his own love poetry. Organised according to poets, rather than subjects, the edition celebrates love poetry originating in the English language, from Wyatt to the present day. It includes blues lyrics, American folk poetry, Elizabethan lyrics, Broadway songs, and a full range of poetic styles from the aristocratic to the popular. Eminently readable and engaging, "The New Faber Book of Love Poetry" presents some of the most emotive and memorable lyric poems produced in the English language from the Renaissance to the present day.
James Fenton was born in 1949 and graduated from Magdalen College, Oxford in 1970. He has published five collections of poetry.
