    Really Hearing Your Own Language
  

*by P***L on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2011*

I bought this book after coming across it in Nicholson Baker's "The Anthologist".I am an amateur poet and Attridge clearly,simply explains why English sounds the way it does.It is very readable with examples and exercises along the way.While not a text book,were I teaching poetry this would would be one of the main books that I'd use.It slows you down,as you should be when either reading or writing poetry.It covers all forms and ages of poetry from Middle English to rap,both rhymed and free verse.I would recommend this book to anyone who reads or writes poetry.

    This is the single best book on reading poetry I have found.
  

*by K***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 1999*

Attridge is a careful and helpful reader of English poetry. This book, one of several he has written on the subject, is both elementary and profound. The field is fraught with difficulties and ambiguities, but Attridge sensibly avoids the silly stuff. He provides a helpful summary with each  chapter, and numerous exercises that are both instructive and enjoyable.  This is the kind of book one feels ought to mark a turning point in the  study of prosody. If others may be persuaded to adopt his system of  scansion, the field will be enormously rejuvenated. Having read it, one  returns to earlier work by Fussell, Gross, Hartman and others wishing they  might revise their books accordingly. In any case, the book is spirited,  wide-ranging, and important.
