Buy Selected Poems (Penguin Classics) First Edition by Wordsworth, William, Gill, Stephen (ISBN: 9780140424423) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.

Review: Wordsworth is the Wordsworth of poetry. - One of the best poets to ever write. His writing is simple on the surface but incredibly powerful.
Review: Highly recommended - Promptly arrived in good condition. Very good selection of poems. The only poem I like that was omitted was 'To a Skylark' but this can be found in Jenny Green's Key Poets. Only selections are made from The Prelude but that keeps the book to manageable proportions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wordsworth is the Wordsworth of poetry.
*by L***E on 13 September 2025*

One of the best poets to ever write. His writing is simple on the surface but incredibly powerful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended
*by A***R on 24 August 2016*

Promptly arrived in good condition. Very good selection of poems. The only poem I like that was omitted was 'To a Skylark' but this can be found in Jenny Green's Key Poets. Only selections are made from The Prelude but that keeps the book to manageable proportions.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautifully selected poems
*by E***S on 26 November 2013*

Beautifully selected poems, in clear to read print. I have had an edition, for many years, that I had to a squint to read. This was a reintroduction to come old favourites and if you have no other Wordsworth edition on your shelves, this is the one you should have.
