Title: A great collection spanning 500 years
Product review: This compilation is wonderful. The poems range from some early anonymous rhymes and songs to interesting selections from the great poets of the English language in the 18th and 19th century to Robert Lowell and Sylvia Plath. Given that this list of "Top 500" was based on how often they were included in other anthologies I had expected a "greatest hits" type of collection. But these choices seemed interesting and idiosyncratic enough to make the book wothwhile.
