Customer Reviews

Hardy little volume.

Purchased Seagull Reader Poems for school. This book is competent, well packed, and provides an excellent selection of poems from well known to unknown poets. A great buy.

Review: Seagull Reader, Poems

This book came to me at the best time possible. It was also in excellent condition, with only a few pages written in, but nothing too major. Excellent buy and I hope to purchase from here in the near future.

An Ideal Poetry-Teacher Companion

This book is an excellent text for teaching undergraduate poetry, especially introductory courses. The range and quality of selections are superb, though I would like to see a few more poets included, such as Edward Brathwaite from the West Indies, rap-soul poet Saul Williams, Jorie Graham and Gertrude Stein. But you can't include everyone, and this selection is as good as it gets for a text of this manageable size. I really like this book.
