Excellent poetry guide to the AQA power and conflict poetry anthology question. Each poem is analysed in full, explaining the key ideas (e.g. conflict) and the key methods (e.g. metaphors and verbs, symbolism, juxtaposition etc) featured in each poem. There are simple retrieval questions to help refine your understanding of the poem as well as a more in-depth exam-style question for each poem (with answers and a sample good-quality essay available online via QR code). Each poem is republished in full (which is really important because you don't want to be flicking between two different books) and there are a few demonstrations of what a good and not-so-good answer would look like. Easy to use, everything all in one place. Recommended.
