What has happened to the lost art of memorising poetry? Why do we no longer feel that it is necessary to know the most enduring, beautiful poems in the English language 'by heart'? In his introduction Ted Hughes explains how we can overcome the problem by using a memory system that becomes easier, the more frequently it is practised. The collected 101 poems are both personal favourites of the Poet Laureate and particularly well-suited to the method he demonstrates.
