I need to examine a selection of Crow poems. Does anyone have a chronological list of the Crow poems? I'm looking at Examination at the Womb-Door, Crow's First Lesson, Crow and the Birds, Cock-Crows and Crow's Last Stand. Is it worth reading the Crow poems in their entirety? Also, does this book have that as I have read somewhere that all the Crow poems have never been published together? Thanks.

My copy has 66 poems in it; so the 5 poems you mention are a fairly small selection. This wasn't my favorite Hughes collection though; so I could've certainly done without reading them all. That's mostly a matter of personal taste. I do feel like some of them were repetitive.(less)
