Critiques

Very moving


(5 stars)

1st half isn’t poetry but lyrical short stories of disappointment probably typical in rural America at the turn of the century—death of a child, injury, homeless friends in need. Makes you think of what can be done to improve things. Second half are really good poems, Frost at his finest, including some of his most famous lines. All the readers were the best I have ever heard them, and this is the most I have ever appreciated Frost.

Great Read


(5 stars)

I truly enjoyed this reading, the narrators were great and of course, the selected poems were a learning experience and help me define my own writing.

A good listening experience


(4 stars)

Using discrete voices for discrete characters was surprisingly effective.
