Category Name : Poetry, Drama & Criticism
Author Name : The Ode Less Travelled: Unlocking the Poet within
Publisher Name : It starts well. The first section (on metre) is easy to read and understand, with plenty of examples. The constant attemps at humour in the first few pages soon dies out, thankfully, and I found the content both interesting and informative. Unfortunately the second half of the book isn't as good. The chapter on form soon becomes bogged down in numerous short sections that seem to blend into each other in a mishmash of similar names. Also, the author appears to believe that vulgarities and obscenities are necessary to further the reader's understanding of the topics. Overall, a very good book on metre, but the rest is poor.
Minimum Price : £ 4.99
