Customer Reviews

a joy!

I discovered the work of Walter de la Mare poem by poem. Reading through anthologies, I picked poems I liked, and often found his name at the bottom of them. I recently bought this anthology, which puts together several of his earlier volumes of poetry for young people. Young, I think, is any age under 130. I am 42 years young, and love the magic de la Mare makes with language. Highly recommended!
