None. No current Talk conversations about this book. I haven't actually read all, or even most, of the poems in here, but this is the kind of thing I'll pick up every now and again over a period of years, before I get to read all of it. I like all of Auden's poetry that I've read so far -- particularly "Funeral Blues", aka "Stop all the clocks". (  ) shanaqui | Apr 9, 2013 |  Auden's "O Tell Me The Truth About Love" brings me to tears every time. I am in awe of his convincing, open-handed, emotional style. ( ) wesh | Mar 5, 2011 | Ah, what a poet!! (  )1  lorsomething | May 1, 2010 | Alexander McCall Smith`s many references to Auden reawakened me to the poetry of this genius. I treasure this old copy I found on E-Bay. ( ) kerrlm | Jan 1, 2010 | As the cover says "all the poems that W.H. Auden wished to preserve, in the texts that received his final approval." The anthology is in chronological order so you can see how his style evolved. This is a must for Auden fans, but would be quite a slog for people who only know a couple of his famous poems and want to dip in a little more.
