Men and Women

Browning's Men and Women consists of fifty-one poems, all of which are monologues spoken by different narrators, some identified and some not; with dramatic lyrics, considered to contain some of the best of Browning's poetry, but at the time it was not received well and sold poorly ...The title of the collection came from a line in Elizabeth's Sonnets from the Portuguese. Browning himself was very fond of the collection, referring to the poems as "My fifty men and women" and today, Men and Women has been described as one of Victorian England's most significant books--Wikpedia.
