Riassunto

An exciting new anthology: new poems for a new century! John Agard spearheads this collection of specially commissioned poems from poets of all ages, the famous and the up and coming: Brian Patten, Adrian Mitchell and Carol Ann Duffy are all here, alongside Sophie Hannah, Tony Mitton and Helen Dunmore. Voices from all over the world - English, Scottish, Caribbean, Hungarian and American - mingle in this irrepressibly lively collection. The eclectic mix of poems is subtly linked by the word 'new' which pops up in every poem! Modern, off-the-wall illustrations from young talent Lydia Monks makes this the perfect poetry book.
