A handsome tome of dark poetry to feed the fans of all things macabre, gothic, and weird.The perfect book for fans of Edgar Allan Poe and, more widely, for those who love their dark side with a touch of horror. Poetry’s fascination with the weird and the macabre has a long literary history, and Sampson sates modern appetites with this curated collection of over 300 of the best poems published on the subject.There is a fine and terrible tradition of poetry of the occult, the macabre, and the sinister, and this anthology will introduce the reader to both celebrated antiheroes like Keats’s serpentine Lamia and Christina Rossetti’s thirsty goblins, and less well-known figures from nightmare, such as Violet Fane’s deadly Victorian siren and Clare Pollard’s ultramodern Reynardine. From the gothic dreamscapes of Edgar Allan Poe to Coleridge’s unhallowed ocean, explore the mind’s dark places with poems that stretch back centuries to the latest terror from today’s bards. The sinister but seductive beauty of illustrators such as Harry Clarke accompany the poems in a volume that will speak to those drawn to the dark.

Heartbreak. It hits like a freight train and leaves us reeling. We've all been there — marathon-watching The Notebook, blasting Taylor Swift, or desperately hoping for a Mr. Darcy-level hand flex to solve all our problems. And when the hot priest in Fleabag tells us "It'll pass," we want to believe him, but our hearts are still shattered.You Can Do It With a Broken Heart by Ana Sampson isn't just a collection; it's your new best friend. Whether you're in the "ugly crying on the bathroom floor" phase or the "I'm totally fine, just listening to breakup anthems on repeat" stage, these poems get it. They're here to validate your pain, unleash your inner angst, and remind you that even when it feels like the world is ending, you're not alone.Dive into the raw, relatable wisdom of literary legends like Emily Dickinson, Rumi, W.B. Yeats, Dorothy Parker, Wilfred Owen, and Anne Sexton. And for those moments when you need a modern voice to scream-sing along with, discover the powerful poetry of Ada Limón, Hera Lindsay Bird, Jackie Kay, and Nikita Gill.You Can Do It With a Broken Heart is for anyone who has loved and lost, and is ready — in the immortal words of Love Actually — to get the bleep kicked out of us by love again.
