Customer Reviews

Poetry with style!

I haven't begun to spend time with this beautiful book as yet but, I expect it to be of the same high quality as Roger Housden's other books. I find that these lovely editions need quality time and, having got three of them together, cannot be rushed.

Personal Favorite of all his poetry compilations!

There are just a handful of poems in this collection that aren't great. I do miss the essays that accompany the poems in his 'Ten Poems' series but still this is a great collection to have by your bedside.

Enjoyable

The selection of poetry in this volume is wonderful. It's one of my favorit anthologies and I have purchased extra copies for friends. The forward and first poem clearly present a case for joyousness even in this world of hunger, disasters, and sorrows.
