Poetry Spectrum II expands and enriches the selection of poems that proved so popular in the original anthology, Poetry Spectrum. Particular emphasis has been given to poems from South Africa and from Africa, but the great poetic tradition of the rest of the world, in particular Britain, Ireland and the United States of America, has not been neglected.

In addition to the poems themselves, all lovers of poetry will find the questions and the glossary very useful. And the index of poets, poems and first lines will prove an invaluable help in ‘finding that poem’!
