Title: Nice Collection
Review: Of course this is "My favorite poems" collection by Professor Bloom. I was disappointed to not find Whittier in here, but after learning Mr. Bloom considers Whitman the greatest America poet it does not surprise me. He could have at least printed "Snowbound".Space given to Longfellow was very short - far too short for my taste, anyway. I think a selection from "Evangeline" or "The Song of Hiawatha" would have been appropriate.I do think he gave a nice bit of space to Dickinson.Overall, this collection is very nice and definitely a keeper. My suggestion is to read this as an introduction to poetry and the buy a book of your favorites to get a broader view.I also think the introductions and annotations given by prof. Bloom are very nice.
