This book is the first poetry analysis guide intended for all candidates studying English for GCSE, A-Level, and at undergraduate level. Importantly, it is a 'pocket guide' - concise and accessible, meaning that all students will be able to find it useful whether they happen to be struggling in the subject or trying to secure their own top-grade performance. The guide is organised into five short, reader-friendly chapters: an introduction, 'Why is Poetry Difficult?', 'What do Poems Mean?', 'The Challenge of Poetic Form', and 'How to Write an Essay on a Poem'. Each of these chapters challenges particular misunderstandings about poetry whilst presenting some clear, practical strategies for how to analyse poems"--  |c Provided by publisher.
