A Poem for Every Day of the Year

A Poem For Every Day of the Year is a magnificent collection of 366 of the greatest poems in the English language, compiled by the award-winning poetry curator Allie Esiri. The collection is passionately narrated by Helena Bonham Carter and Simon Russell Beale, with introductions read by Allie Esiri and contributions from Damian Lynch and Peter Forbes.

Reflecting the changing seasons and linking to events on key dates – funny for April Fool's Day, festive for Christmas – the book is inspiring, informative and empowering.

Perfect for any age, the poems are familiar favourites and exciting new discoveries. T.S. Eliot, A.A. Milne, John Keats, William Shakespeare and Christina Rossetti sit alongside Seamus Heaney, Wendy Cope, Maya Angelou and Kae Tempest. This soul-enhancing book will keep you company every day of the year.
