Listorama: Poetry Facts

Via my comrade in verse, the genius Chrissy Williams, some eye-popping factoids underneath the stats here. My fave:

Most unusual cause of poet's death during reign of Elizabeth I: Robert Greene's, as a result of a surfeit of Rheinish wine and pickled herrings

  1. Hi Rish,

    Me and a friend of mine are setting up a series of
    podcasts with the London Underground theme full of lots of interesting information. As it is still in early stages we would really appreciate it if you could come down and we would like to know what we think about it all.
