What is it about love poetry that we so love? Why is poetry such a popular medium for expressing love? This short book will answer these questions by taking a look at some of the finest poetry in the English language.The complex, concentrated language of a poem has a lot in common with the complexity and intensity of love. But poetry is never only about love. Its meanings reach into other areas of our lives.The popularity of love poetry suggests that readers crave literary encounters with love. We want to have our feelings and experiences reflected back at us in words. Reading poems, we anticipate a glimmer of recognition.This book starts with a look at love poetry's modern historical development. Then we spend time with individual poets, beginning with William Shakespeare in the sixteenth century. Their verse will demonstrate different ways in which poets have written about love.

Описание: The story tells of a house party, which, by way of novelty, is held at a summer camping the Canadian wilds. The camp, though delightful in the summer, is a grim and desolate spot in the winter, as the party soon find out. An atmosphere of eerieness and danger is cleverly created by the author, and leads up to a startling tragedy. The mystery surrounding the murder is complete at first, and its ultimate solution lacks nothing in the way of unexpectedness. Here we have excitement, murder, and a dramatic denouement in the best ""thriller"" tradition, but Luke Allan has this time given us more than the usual ration. The atmosphere of tension and danger which overhangs the characters throughout places this latest Luke Allan high up in the ""thriller"" class.
