#CuriousCovers Day 9: Purple
This is a really under appreciated poetry collection, originally published in 1982 and edited by Seamus Heaney (known for his translation of Beowulf) and Ted Hughes (known for being Sylvia Plath‘s husband). It was a required book in my college poetry class, and I still go back to it occasionally. It has a really wide selection of poetry from William Blake to Elizabeth Bishop.
