5.0 out of 5 stars Exquisite and delightful bad poetry!, July 23, 2000

A Maryland Reader (Frederick, Maryland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: McGonagall: A Selection (Paperback)
This book is a true literary gem. William McGonagall, Scotland's legendary 19th C. bard, is widely recognized as the world's worst poet, ever. What makes his verse so marvellous is that the man truly believed in his 'talent'. Trust me, you can't write poetry this bad on purpose. He has a strong bent to chronicalling tragedy and catastrophes. This book is fascinating and highly recommended to anyone interested in the craft of words, poetry and literature. And after you have absorbed the art of McGonagall, venture into "Very Bad Poetry" edited by Kathryn and Ross Petras. Authentic bad poetry is a whole new adventure in English verse.
