imdillionen's review against another edition
4.0
He was so gloomy! So depressed.
Interesting selection. 'A Letter To' and 'Dejection' back to back give you the impression that you know Coleridge's favourite images very well.
I don't connect to his shorter things, but man what trips 'Christabel' and 'The Ancyent Marinere' are! I wish he had written more this sort of short-metre-gothic-fantasy stuff, it really does everything.

I didn't really get much out of this. There were two poems I really liked ('The Nightingale' and 'The Pains of Sleep') but the rest mostly wasn't for me. [Plus, I just don't really are about the letters at the end - why include those in this collection?]
