The Faber Book Of Beasts

كتاب The Faber Book Of Beasts
المؤلف: Paul Muldoon

From reviews of The Faber Book of Beasts : ' Centuries of attention and revelation are on display in this loving anthology , with the best of poets realising some of their finest work ... an anthology that manifests taste , reconnaissance , and generosity . Christopher Ricks , Sunday Times ' A cornucopia of brilliantly achieved poems .. I do not know a better anthology of poems , and , though it includes nothing by Paul Muldoon , only a poet of his immense linguistic finesse and imagination , " gravity and waggery " , could you have compiled it . ' Hugh Haughton , Observer ' Animals gallop and slither through political and social satire , through metamorphosis , allegory , fable and conceit , through the mystery and fun of their similarities and differences to us . For sheer zest and pleasure , it is hard to think of a poetry anthology of any kind to beat this one . ' Jo Shapcott , Times Educational Supplement ' Everyone can applaud this generous and intelligent round - up of old favourites , new juxtapositions , and poems we mightn't know about . ' William Scammell , Independent on Sunday
