3.0 out of 5 stars
OK, But Perhaps Not as Great as the Others,
By Robert Paterson (New York, NY, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Heart of Autumn: Poems for the Season of Reflection (Hardcover)
Pound for pound, this collection seems to contain more poems by less famous poets than the other seasonal books in this collection, which is great, but many of these poems seem to have somewhat similar themes (a LOT of poems that mention leaves--perhaps a world record for a collection) and like another reviewer here, I have to agree that this book is a little more dull than the others. However, it's pretty good, and certainly warrants at least three stars.

WHAT HAPPENED?!?!,
This review is from: The Heart of Autumn: Poems for the Season of Reflection (Hardcover)
Unlike the two previous volumes on spring and winter, THE HEART OF AUTUMN is extremely dull and dim. What happened? The cover is attractive, I like the idea of the leaf "illustrations", but the poems are not at all stimulating emotionally, nor do they lead the reader to reflection. I do hope, on the other hand, the summer volume will make up for this poor selection made for autumn--in fact, could I ask for a revised edition of the autumn volume (there have to be better poems that this...) of it instead of asking for my money back?
