Poets have been fascinated and challenged by the sonnet ever since it was imported from Italy to England in the sixteenth century. With its fourteen lines, inexhaustibly variable, it has met the particular needs of almost every major poet from Thomas Wyatt to Paul Muldoon. Don Paterson, himself a gifted practioner of the form, has devised an anthology that is both a sharing of personal favourites, and a celebration of its most shining examples.
