Review # 1 was written on 2021-02-28 00:00:00 Camerino Rosas No longer new (unless you can travel time), but a good collection of early works by some well known, and some not, names. The success of a collection? How many of the writers you check out further down the line. Over 50% is a successful collection.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-10-07 00:00:00 Peter J. Eagan A bit of a mixed bag, an interesting read and some really good poems but at the same time there are a lot of poems that really aren't that good. In general i'm not that into modern poetry but as i said it was worth reading because there were a few that stuck out. But my main criticism was that due to trying to cram the work of as many poets as possible into this volume a lot of the very long poems were just given in excerpt form so even if the poem was very good you only got to read a portion of it and personally i would rather they either cut some of the other poems or made that section with that author longer so you at least got a full sense of the abridged poems.
