## Description

Review
        	
        	
        		
        			&apos;Don Paterson is one of the most talented poets working today; he is also an editor of poetry, a reader, someone intrigued by linguistics and philosophy and neurology, and is therefore the perfect polymath to write a book on how we read poetry ... ornery, profound, engaging, infuriating.&apos; (Stuart Kelly The Scotsman)&apos;By the end of The Poem, I found myself reading lines of poetry over and over, exploring with a new intensity their sense and sound, right down to the most seemingly inconsequential grammar mark or phoneme. That is a sign of a good teacher: someone who can help others improve their own understanding of the world.&apos; (Nick Major The Herald)A tremendous achievement. (William Wooten TLS)
