100 Poems by 100 Poets
by Harold Pinter Edited by Harold Pinter Edited by Geoffrey Godbert Edited by Anthony AstburyTo pass the time on a long train ride from London to Cornwall, playwright Harold Pinter and his two companions, Geoffrey Godbert and Anthony Astbury, set up a challenge: Choose a hundred poems by a hundred poets—living poets excluded—to represent the finest poetry ever written in English. The resulting anthology is challenging, eclectic, very personal, and great fun.
