This series contains poetry and prose anthologies composed of writers from across the English-speaking world. Parts of Songs of Ourselves Volume 1 are set for study in Cambridge IGCSE®, O Level and Cambridge International AS & A Level Literature in English syllabuses. The anthology includes work from over 100 poets, combining famous names – such as William Wordsworth, Maya Angelou and Seamus Heaney – with lesser-known voices. This helps students create fresh and interesting contrasts as they explore themes that range from love to death.
