Customer Reviews

"The Four Seasons", a review.

"The Four Seasons" is one of twenty "Everyman Library Pocket Poets" in my collection. This volume has some serious and regrettable flaws which can be found in Cumming's iconic "In Just-". Line six has been omitted as has "running", and "far" appears as "fat" in subsequent lines. I contacted the editor of the volume and he was to write the publisher, but the books in this series are printed in Germany. If one can ignore the errors in Cummings he will find a comprehensive and rewarding selection of poems. D. Sermersheim

The Four Seasons: Poems

This is a well thought out collection of poems and is a wonderful way to enjoy the changing seasons. I couldn't be happier with this purchase.
