This was a lovely collection of classic love poems!
The selection of authors was expected. It features classic love poets such as Shakespeare, Dickinson, and Byron. I’m not that familiar with classic poetry (I read more modern poetry), so I cannot speak too much on the selection of poems.
As with almost all poetry collections, some poems stood out more than others. Here were my favorites:
-Passion by Sappho (pg. 1)
-The First Kiss by Sappho (pg. 2)
