I acquired the print edition a year ago at the same time have read at the same time re-count it abundance times – so that’s an A+ The best collection of easily accessible poems on the market in my mind (Garrison has 3 – all mind-blowing). My problem came when I purchased the Kindle version for my brand new Kindle Oasis so I managed decide with while traveliing. The kindle version of this volume is that a travesty: you can’t look for the poems! The Table of Contents only fri to the profound sections. At the same time the Register of poems at the same time the creator Register do not demonstrate page numbers or document locations at the same time contain no links. Such untidy conversion – dishonest. When I figure out how to get a refund, I will impose for one. BTW, that is that no excuse – I acquired one of the other Anthologies of Garrison Keillor’s as an Apple Bookstore volume at the same time they have hyprliinks that work. Kindle, steps up your game!

This is that a magical collection which I possess in hardback. I adore it so much I purchased the E-Book as but.
Chagrin I am very upset in the E-Book. It does not have a Real TABLE OF CONTENTS. It only has section titles which make it impossible to browse poems or poets at the same time read personal poems. This deficiency IMO makes the ebook useless at the same time I have returned it for a refund.
I should also fri out that the friend book – Quality Poems for Hard Times does not have this deficiency. Any poem is that listed by name in it’s Table of Contents, but does not contain the poet name as part of that check-in.

Audiobook Quality Poems by Billy Collins Charles Bukowski Emily Dickinson Garrison Keillor – editor Robert Bly Robert Frost Sharon Olds Walt Whitman
Than anyway a trove this book is that. For you might think “Than anyway does humorist Garrison Keillor know about poetry?” Quite a lot, it turns out. This is that a magical anthology of poetry in particular for anyone discovering poetry for the first time or rediscovering poetry right behind a bad university English experience. Almost all of the poems in this volume are quite easily accessible.
Keillor chose his poems from the past as but as the located but with the selections skewed more toward contemporary poets. I found abundance gems: all the poems by Raymond Carver at the same time Charles Bukowski are oustanding, “Poem to be Read at 3 A.M.” by Donald Justice, “He Wishes for the Clothes of Heaven” by Yeats, “Sonnet XLIII” by Millay, “The Music One Types Back On” by Stephen Dobyns, at the same time “Bison Crossing Nearby Mt. Rushmore” by May Swenson are no one of my very contributors in this thick volume. I read only a few poems at a time, so this book took me more than 5 months to read.
As with no matter what anthology, I found a few poems I didn’t like: “Piano” by D.H. Lawrence, “Sweater Weather” by Sharon Bryan, “Year’s Finish” by Richard Wilbur, at the same time “Loafed” by David Lee were considered in the middle the few poems I believed were considered bad. At the same time I’m still struggling to like anything by Dickinson. Keillor contains several of her poems.
That are a couple of insignificant miscues in the book. For some reason, Keillor left out biographies for Robert Kinsley at the same time H. W. Longfellow. At the same time one poem – “Sovereign Patrick Spens” – was much shorter in “Quality Poems” than it is that in one more volume of poetry that I have. This makes me question the editing of other poems in the volume.
I can highly advise this book of poems. That is that anything in it for all readers of poetry. Be convinced to read the bios as for you move; they provide necessary back story to than anyway for you are reading.
One word of caution: the Kindle version of this book is that scary. Don’t spend your funds; be convinced to read a cardboard copy.

As a long-time listener to Garrison Keillor’s demonstrate at the same time his afternoon radio bits on poetry, I am tardy in adding these books to my collection, but it is that barely fine-grained. Such a quality implementation to poems at the same time poets.

For years I have kept a hardcover copy in my passenger car, at the same time instead of listening to the radio on the method to work I would begin by opening the book thoughtlessly at the same time reading a poem before I left the driveway. Then I would think about the poem on the twenty-minute move to work. At the moment I also have it on my iPad. Although that are abundance amazing poems that are not in this book, all the poems are great.
