Indulge in the refined and exquisite verses of London with Ten Poems About London (Instead of a Card).

London has probably inspired more poetry than any of the world’s great cities. William Wordsworth’s iconic ‘Composed upon Westminster Bridge’ shows how even a great poet of nature could be dazzled by its architectural splendour and the serene waters of the Thames.

George Szirtes’ eclectic selection captures something of the essence of the city, revealed through its railway stations, squares, coffee houses – even the trees that line its streets. Whether you’re a native Londoner or a visitor, this mini-anthology provides a perfect companion to this most beguiling of capitals.

Poems by Elizabeth Bartlett, William Blake, Elaine Feinstein, WS Graham, AN Stencl, George Szirtes, Sarah Wardle and William Wordsworth.

Cover illustration by Paul Catherall.
