So this was a very accessible edition of Robert Frost's poetry. The general introduction and the brief analytical preludes to individual or small groups of poems helped give the reader a greater understanding and perhaps appreciation for the works. The downside is that all too often these explanatory passages included quotes from the selfsame poems they prefaced, leading to a certain redundancy and even surfeit. ( )
