This anthology of poems has three sections: British poetry ranging from William Shakespeare to Ted Hughes. American poetry ranging from Walt Whitman to Evelyn Tooley Hunt, and African and Indian poetry ranging from John Pepper Clark to Sujata Bhatt. Each poem has a note on the poet, a glossary of difficult terms and expressions and a set of questions for comprehension and appreciation of the text. The anthology can be used not only for undergraduate and intermediate levels but even at the high school level.
