1) Hardcover Book Collected Poems of Robert Frost by Amereon Limited. I purchased this book because I love Robert Frost´s poetry. I got the hardcover so it would be worth keeping on a bookshelf. The print was blurred in several places, there was no index by first lines, and the cover was disappointing. I expected for $30.00 a nice quality binding. Not worth the money, especially when comparing to a copy of Thoreau´s "Faith in a Seed" which was $21.00 and very nice, on good quality paper, with a dustcover.¤

2) Hardcover Book Collected Poems of Robert Frost by Amereon Limited. Robert Frost´s legacy is a vision of startling clarity and bottomless empathy. His poems are deceptively simple, and anyone who has not revisited them since Junior High School is in for a surprise of major proportions: What seemed so simple, "Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening" perhaps, dazzles anew with complexity. Those quaint New England homilies are really metaphors for the most subtle observations. What seems to be a story about the life of nature is really a lesson about the nature of life. Frost has been criticized for being too accessible, as if communicating in one´s writing were a sin. But while he is accessible, he is never transparent. These poems are a well one can return to again and again for a fresh drink, a fresh perspective, a long, sweet sip.¤
