Auden wrote some of my favorite poems, including "Law Like Love," "Voltaire at Ferney," "More Loving One," "The Unknown Citizen," "Lady, Weeping at the Crossroads," and "In Praise of LImestone." These are all classics, as are many other poems in this collection.

W. H. Auden was not merely an odd'ne, he was a great poet. This is, thus, a great book. (
