Quirky poems October 24, 2008 Simic has a quirky style. If you like quirk you may like this. Some profanity.
Collection, but not new. May 30, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Charles Simic, Sixty Poems (Harcourt, 2007)
Whenever I hear there's a new Charles Simic book coming out, I look forward to it with great anticipation; thus, I was somewhat disappointed when I found out that this one is a compilation of poems from his later books (the earliest poems here are from Unending Blues), so I'd already read them all. Still, it's always a pleasure to go back and revisit Charles Simic poems, but if you've read all the recent books, move along, folks, nothing to see here. As a beginner course in Simic, it's useful, but would have been more so had it included poems from his wonderful earlier books (and, for some reason, there's nothing in here from the Pulitzer-winning The World Doesn't End). ***

The book was received in excellent condition. Shipping was fairly quick. I have read many of the poems -- and enjoyed them. Simic is a contemporary master.
