I am a huge Robert Frost fan, and having this book lets me take time in my busy schedule to visit his world. I especially enjoyed the broad collection contained in this series. It was, well, wonderful.

This review is from: Frost: Poems (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets) (Hardcover)

Frost's poetry is very good, there is no denying that, but it must be an acquired taste. I have been reading this volume a little bit at a time but it's not very uplifting and it is hard to enjoy. Melancholia just seems to drip from the pages. I'll bet Robert Frost was a real fun person to be around.
