"Love this book, but i need to read it slowly, one poem at a time. The author writes an essay on each poem about the background of the poet and his own experiences trading then. He gives a lot of insight i wouldn't have caught and is helping me understand and enjoy poetry much more." — May 22, 2026 12:08PM

“A library is a good place to go when you feel unhappy, for there, in a book, you may find encouragement and comfort. A library is a good place to go when you feel bewildered or undecided, for there, in a book, you may have your question answered. Books are good company, in sad times and happy times, for books are people - people who have managed to stay alive by hiding between the covers of a book."
