A Book of Love Poetry by Jon Stallworthy

Jon Stallworthy has here selected some of the most moving, funny, shameless, and erotic love poems in history. Representing the work of more than 190 poets, he offers a comprehensive history of love poetry through the ages.
Stallworthy's book of love poetry, ranging across more than twenty centuries of writing about love 'till the stars have run away,' establishes beyond the eye-shadow of a doubt that love is, has been and always will be blind* Christian Science Monitor *
A very thorough job...eccentric and entertaining. * Times Literary Supplement (London) *
More complex and thoughtful than I expected. Students would be piqued by subject and end up learning about good poetry! * Claudia Basha, Victor Valley College *
