Making Love to Marilyn Monroe

Making Love to Marilyn Monroe: The Faber Book of Blue Verse presents a variety of candidly sexual verse through the centuries from Catullus and Chaucer to modern poets like T.S. Eliot, Kingsley Amis, Seamus Heaney, James Fenton, Kit Wright, Craig Raine and Wendy Cope. Here the bawdy goes hand in hand with emotional, intellectual, confessional, and satirical touching tributes to that perennially fascinating subject - sex.
