Poets have been fascinated and challenged by the sonnet ever since
it was imported from Italy to England in the sixteenth century.
With its fourteen lines, inexhaustibly variable, it has met
particular needs of almost every major poet from Thomas Wyatt to
Paul Muldoon. Don Paterson, himself an adept of the form, has
devised an anthology that is both a sharing of personal favourites
and a celebration of high moments in the sonnet's history. His
introduction and wonderfully insightful notes provide a history and
commentary that will prove illuminating to the casual reader and
indispensable to the student or aspiring sonneteer.
