Reviews

Amazon reviewer, Victoria Daniels
Excellent, in-depth and useful structured analysis of poems. A 'serious' book...[with] well-structured commentaries to really 'get you thinking'. I found the glossary, sample answers, and in particular the section on AOs, clear and helpful. I'd recommend this book to any GCSE English Lit student seeking guidance.
