Another poem from the 19th century,a treasure which is often called a self help book in itself. Written by Rudyard Kipling, this poem explores and gives guidance as to how a man/ woman should be, and the rest as they say is history:)

Dear Doctor

Written in 1830 this poem by Lord Byron is all about those times when publishers very firmly and mostly rudely rejected the publications of writers. Praising them at first and then very neatly rejecting the work, those were hard times. Listen to the poem for its humour for the irony , the wit and the level of sarcasm goes up the roof:)
