Love for Love: An Anthology of Love Poems (Pocketbooks, 03)

By: John Burnside

This anthology was compiled by asking 50 poets to select their favourite love poem and write a poem of their own in response. The contributors, writing in English, Gaelic and Scots, include Andrew Greig, Meg Bateman, Stewart Conn, Valerie Gilles, Robin Robertson, Robert Crawford, Kate Clanchy and Rody Gorman. Their chosen poems have been gathered from around the world and across the centuries and range from work by Pablo Neruda, Nina Cassian and Pierre de Ronsard to Iain Crichton Smith, Robert Creeley, William Soutar and Norman McCaig.
