Selected Poems of Lord Byron: Including Don Juan and Other Poems (Wordsworth Poetry Library) Paperback – 5 Mar. 1994

A big book for a lot of reading.

Not quite what I expected. Well packed and arrived on time. I was hoping for more shorter poems.

I'm also reviewing the edition, and not the author himself: that's a job for the literary critics.Formally, this edition has many good features: the font size is just right, not too common in cheap editions for 800-page tomes; the notes are very helpful; and succint introductions are supplied.It doesn't get 5 starts for a minor flaw in the content. A very good surprise was that it contains the whole of Don Juan, arguably Byron's masterpiece. However, I can't disguise my disappointment at not finding two of Byron's most famous short poems, "So we'll go no more a-roving" and the superb "She walks in beauty".Overall, a fairly good edition. Byron is a must in any library, and this book fills the gap in the Romantic period shelf neatly.

Good value

This was a full paperback edition of Byron in the Wordsworth series but was pretty old and looked nothing like the advertised copy on Amazon.

Brilliant exactly what I wanted

More than I expected. Highly recommended

very pleased with product at affordable price
