Please recommend a good poetry book, which includes poetic criticism?


I just finished Break, Blow, Burn by Camille Paglia. I didn’t agree completely with some of her assessments, but I loved reading them and comparing my own notes to hers. Can anyone recommend another book that is written in this format (Poem, followed by background/history/criticism…)? Thanks!

    I’d recomend Alexander Pope – Essay on criticism. In the poem he illustrates what he means.
