Reviews

'There is no more trusted name when it comes to the work of the great British poets than that of Oxford University Press. If you want the collected works, fully annotated and with scholarly editing then it's OUP you look to ... a series of elegant paperback volumes, each dedicated to a single poet, and with an introduction by an acknowledged expert.'
David Thomas, Oxford Times
'the selections are excellent, and the books real value for money'
Robert Nye, The Times
