Decent collection,

This review is from: Marriage Poems (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets) (Hardcover)
This is a nice collection of poems about marriage. The poems are thematically organized, from courtship, to the wedding day, to separations, etc. It is not a collection of love poems. The editor draws from many eras and a handful of languages. This collection contains anonymous traditional songs, and works by Spenser, Hardy, Rilke, Larkin, and others.

Marriage in its True Forms,

This review is from: Marriage Poems (Everyman's Library Pocket Poets) (Hardcover)
Hollander does a great job of organizing these poems into various themes. I did not read every single one, but I enjoyed those that I had to read for class and would recommend this to anyone really likes poetry. The poems vary from long to short, complicated to sing-songy, and in that reflect marriage itself. They really made me think about my relationship and where I want to end up in 20 years.
