Pretty good introduction to poetry - has a decent variety, although it's obviously almost all English language. It's also mostly white men, but they did try and introduce some variety which is nice to see. The notes aren't bad, but I wished there was more - for all poems they say the form metre and rhyme scheme (if it has one) and it usually defines weird words but it doesn't give any context or information on the author, which is a bit disappointing. The appendix on metre is nice though. The selection was decent - although there were quite a few poems that I didn't like at all and I'd have liked even more variety. Ultimately it's a good book but not outstanding - worthwhile to read if you're interested in poetry and haven't read much but probably doesn't have much to make it stand out among the pack of similar books.
