A short history of poetry and people (for people who don't usually read poetry)
Rhyme & Reason takes you through the surprising history of Britain through poetry.
From a medieval accountant (called Chaucer) trying to entertain his lord, past a doomed love affair in the Tower of London, through adoring sonnets and notebooks filled with dirty poems, and into the heart of Byromania and the Victorian hearth, to help you understand why poetry has had such an enduring hold on the British psyche.
