If you are looking for a guide book to poetry for beginners, especially for college students, please try this one. The materials ranging from the simple to the more complex, consist of introductory analyses of the most important poetic devices that students should know and illustrated by poems chosen for their apt use of these devices. At the end of each example, a short test will be given in which the students must apply what they have learned to previously unseen quotations. Though poetry is the great monster for some Thai students, hopfully this book may be useful in providing help to students, as well as to teachers of English literature as a source of literary texts and also beneficial to any interested persons who want to read it merely for their literary appreciation.
