In a poetry reading rut? Not sure what to pick up after loving Rupi Kaur's Milk and Honey, or Seamus Heaney's 100 Poems?
In our Book Doctor feature, we welcome a guest to prescribe just the right read for any mood or occasion. William Sieghart will be here ahead of National Poetry Day (4th October) to answer poetry dilemmas of all kinds. If your question is answered, you'll win a signed copy of his book The Poetry Pharmacy.

In the years since he first had the idea of prescribing short, powerful poems for all manner of spiritual ailments, William Sieghart has taken his Poetry Pharmacy around the length and breadth of Britain, into the pages of the Guardian, onto BBC Radio 4 and onto the television, honing his prescriptions all the time.
