This pocket poets edition offers a great collection of Keats work. I enjoyed the lyric poems and (surprisingly) his letters. His appreciation for beauty, truth, nature and Greek mythology translates really well into his very flowy and exceptionally well rhymed stories. However, the narrative poems were too lengthy for my taste and I found it all to be very much of the same. And in this case that bored me a little.

"Darkling I listen; and, for many a time / I have been half in love with easful Death, / Call'd him soft names in many a mused rhyme, / To take into the air my quiet breath; / Now more than ever seems it rich to die" -Ode to Nightingale

There is no other way to rate Keats his poetry is so romantic and so human at the same time.
I recieved three of these little pocket poetry books for my birthday and I really like them.

While I do like some of the shorter poems, the long, narrative poems are just not enjoyable for me.
