In einer Lebenskrise trifft der britische Abenteurer Roger Deakin einen wilden Entschluss: Er wird alle Gewässer Großbritanniens durchschwimmen, ausgerüstet mit einem dünnen Neoprenanzug und besessen von dem Wunsch, seine Heimat neu zu vermessen - aus der Froschperspektive, die Augen stets nur wenige Zentimeter über der Wasseroberfläche. Auf seiner einjährigen Reise durchschwimmt er eiskalte Gebirgsseen ebenso unerschrocken wie vedreckte Bewässerungsgräben und wilde Flussläufe, begegnet Lachsen in Somerset, Aalen in den Sümpfen Ostenglands und Schwimmern in den Hamstead Ponds. Was als gelebter Traum vom Schwimmen beginnt, nimmt in seinen faszinierenden Beschreibungen selbst bald traumhafte Züge an. So wird das Logbuch eines Schwimmers zum Selbstportrait eines außergewöhnlichen Mannes, das sich auch als politisches Manifest gegen die Privatisierung von Gewässern und Natur lesen lässt.

One of the essential references for scholars and humanists
Format: Paperback
I got the 1972 PEPP as a high school student (and self-imposed "poet"). I was cured of being a poet by time, but reading through PEPP like an evergreen sampler plate made me educated in prosody, forms, theories of poetry, the history of genres, national literatures, and more. When I went to college, my professors kept asking which expensive prep school I had gone to, because no one came as well prepared as I was. The NPEPP was not quite as inspiring, but this edition is thrilling. Get it. Open it and start grazing. This is not a book as much as it is a field to wander in for years. It works as traditional reference -- answering questions on specific lemma -- but it also works as a delightful resource.

Excellent Reference Book!
Format: Paperback
I don't think this book was meant to be read cover to cover. If it is, the reader better start reading at an early age because there are over 1,000 pages and print is small. However, the book is an excellent reference and provides data that other similar books do not cover. It is a worthy investment.

The definitive reference
Format: Kindle
The definitive reference. It can be a bit hard to use if you're not up on the jargon, but it's an invaluable work if you are interested in the technical aspects of poetics.
