The 100 Best Poems of All Time by Leslie Pockell

3.0

This volume is a handy little collection of some of the world's "best poems;" a convenient stepping-stone into poetry for people like me who avoid poetry as much as possible and don't know where to begin. It's a nice survey of poetry, comprised mainly of works from British and American poets, and while it's still not enough to make me a poetry convert, I appreciated reading and recognizing poems with which I should probably be more familiar.
