1.The Sonnets (The New Cambridge Shakespeare)The Sonnets (The New Cambridge Shakespeare)
from Cambridge University Press
Price: $70.00

Customer Review:
Shakespeare's collection of sonnets is so much a part of the western cultural heritage that reviewing it is kind of like taking coals to Newcastle, but it is worth a few words. First, however, a note about this edition: it is exactly what I wanted, with a few unobstructive footnotes at the bottom of... more info

2.Collected Earlier PoemsCollected Earlier Poems
from Knopf
Price: $20.00

Customer Review:
Contains the complete texts of Millions of Strange Shadows, The Venetian Vespers, and The Hard Hours (for which he won the Pulitzer prize). Hechts poems are formal and savage. You'd be hard pressed to find another poet who can write with such grace and ferocity. From jealous love to the holocaust,... more info

3.[no image]The Venetian Vespers: Poems (Venetian Vespers CL)
from Atheneum Books

Customer Review:
Anthony Hecht is simply the best living poet in America, perhaps the world. And this collection of poems is his best. In particular, the eponymous twenty-six page poem that forms the center of the book is the most meditative, sensitive, exquisite poem of our age. Moreover, it is indispensable for... more info

4.[no image]Melodies Unheard: Essays on the Mysteries of Poetry (Johns Hopkins: Poetry and Fiction)
from The Johns Hopkins University Press
Price: $19.00

Customer Review:
This compilation of essays by perhaps the finest, most elegant poet writing on either side of the Atlantic has its faults. The first one to catch the eye is that the first two essays on the Sonnet repeat each other, word for word, in several places. But taking the work, which covers many subjects in... more info

5.Collected Later PoemsCollected Later Poems
from Knopf

Customer Review:
Hecht is a poet of elegance and clarity, of classical learned lines reflecting a rich personal experience. He is too someone who looks at life with a hard realism which comes from his not easy - life including second world- war combat and being one of the American soldiers who liberated the... more info

8.The Essential Herbert (Essential Poets)The Essential Herbert (Essential Poets)
from Ecco Pr

Customer Review:
Excellent for poetry lovers everywhere. Hecht's essay alone is worth the price of the book. Herbert's poetry still delights, challenges, exalts, reveals, inspires after almost 400 years. T.S. Eliot said first rank Christian poetry must express how a Christian actually feels in relation to loving... more info
