Synopsis
The spirited words of the Romantic poets have inspired countless readers and writers, down to the current day. Their expressiveness is well-suited to the spoken word. Hear on this collection the words of William Blake, Lord Byron, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, John Keats, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and William Wordsworth read by Derek Jacobi, David Horovitch, Diana Quick, Douglas Hodges, Nicol Williamson, and others.
The pieces are linked by a commentary that places them in a historical and biographical context.
Originally published as six individual HighBridge Classics, now the complete set is available as a single CD collection.

From AudioFile
Actors rich in experience and classical training perform these poems and do a wonderful job with their formal elements. They know how to read verse so the rhythm comes through; the cadences in these poems march, skip, and dance, allowing the structural energies behind the words of these great British poets to be heard clearly. Likewise, the brief introductions bridging the different poems provide useful information in a focused fashion. The only weaknesses is that there seems to be no clear personal or even professional connection with the poems; it isn't clear why, for example, Derek Jacobi reads one poem and Diana Quick another.
