Early Poems (Dover Thrift Editions)

Rating:
Summary: A good, small book.
Review: I recommend this edition of Pound's early poetry. It is very cheap and has a number of gems, including Pound's rendering from the Old English of The Seafarer, as well as a few Italian songs and Sestina: Altaforte, one of my favorites. Pound was acquainted with the musical heights of Greek and Italian lyric and did the best he could to transmit that into English, with varying success. Also see his ABC of Reading.
