Customer Reviews

Yes and a little no

for here and now, this is how - yes and a little no. good price good text, interesting but not always inspiring. Shout to the Lord, all the earth let us sing: Power and majesty, praise to the King. Mountains bow down and the seas will roar At the sound of Your name.

Best american Poetry 2009

Excellent eclectic selection of poetry for any mood or situation. A worthwhile addition to a poetry collection.

A very good anthology

The one earlier review strikes me as being written by someone who does not understand poetry and so compensates by posting an unfavorable review in which he continulally whines about how poor the poetry is, for the simple reason that many of the poems seem to be over his head. You would do well to ignore him and instead read this anthology.
