Book description
Poetry is a fascinating use of language. With almost a million words at its command it is not surprising that these Isles have produced some of the most beautiful, moving and descriptive verse through the centuries. . In this series we look at each calendar month through the eyes and minds of our most gifted poets to bring you a unique poetic guide to the days within each. November – The eleventh month of the year in the Gregorian calendar; the land becomes bleaker, harsher but no less beautiful in verse. For our poets, including Herman Melville, Thomas Hood, Matthew Arnold, Helen Hunt Jackson, William Wordsworth there is much to observe, write and comment on. Many samples are at our youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/PortablePoetry?feature=mhee The full volume can be purchased from iTunes, Amazon and other digital stores. Among the readers are Richard Mitchley and Ghizela Rowe
