Poetry On Record: 98 Poets Read Their Work (1888-2006) is an engrossing

collection of poems read by the people who wrote them, from the dawn

of sound recording to the current day. Over the course of four CDs and

an info-packed book, it tells the story of the past 120 years of poetry

in English, from Romanticism (Dylan Thomas) to Modernism (T.S. Eliot),

from the Harlem Renaissance (Langston Hughes) to Black Arts (Amiri

Baraka), from rhyme and meter (Alfred, Lord Tennyson) to free verse

(Adrienne Rich), and beyond. Equally important, it allows listeners to

understand exactly how the poets intended their poems to be read aloud.

Poetry On Record is the most comprehensive collection of its kind and

is a must-have for any fan of poetry, or for anyone who wants an

expertly chosen overview as a starting point.
