Attila Jozsef Selected Poems

'Eunoia', which means 'beautiful thinking', is the shortest word in the English language to contain all five vowels. This book also contains them, but never at the same time. It includes five chapters that use only one vowel.

Contains 120 poems, including The Battery Hen , Please Will You Take Your Children Home Before I Do Them In , Sling Another Chair Leg on the Fire , Mother and, of course, Oh, I Wish I'd Looked After Me Teeth .

Taking its inspiration from Shakespeare's idea of the 'seven ages' of a human life, this anthology brings together the poems in English. Beginning with babies, it is divided into sections on childhood, growing up, making a living and making love, family life, getting older, and approaching death, ending with poems of mourning and commemoration.

In 1995 BBC Television's Bookworm programme conducted a poll amongst viewers to determine their favourite poems. The top 100 are presented in this book. They include the winner, Kipling's If , and many other classics, as well as modern verse by writers such as Seamus Heaney and Ted Hughes.
