If you are looking for a poetry collection that will blow you away, this is not it. If you are looking for more by T H White, reading his biography, or like older poems (most were written in the 1930s and 40s), this book is for you. If you are reading White's biography, there is a reference at the back that gives the history of each poem, even the date it was first written in his journal and what magazines he published it in (if he did at all).

My honest rating would be 3.5 stars, but I couldn't quite give it 4. While every poem wasn't stellar, there were a good many that I enjoyed. If you do read this book, no one's judging if you skip a lot of poems and just read the best ones ( my favorites were "An Outmoded Sonnet", "Choir Boy Singing", and "Now is a Moveable Feast"). ( )
