Fine Recordings Carelessly Packaged

Revisado: 01-08-21

This collection is essentially a data dump of some very good recordings originally issued on Argo LPs. Unless you have those original LP sleeves at hand, you will have no quick way of identifying unfamiliar poems (or readers). Be prepared to spend a little time searching up first lines. Authors and titles are not provided. Is a pdf really a top-tier luxury in the download business in 2020? Were two hours of desk work going to break the project budget? And which of the new hires was in charge of the comically botched Publisher's Summary? Please enjoy these "expertly abridged and remastered stories" written "during the Romantic period"?

The readings themselves, of course, are really everything—the real value here—and I am glad to see them easily available. Perhaps future releases will treat such wonderful archival material with more respect.

(Moving on to a distantly related topic: Dear Audible—Why would I be required to rank a poetry anthology's "story" in order to post a review? At least let me opt out of answering nonsensical questions. Maybe there's an English Major in the office who can work on making sure that all rating questions are relevant to genre?)

All the stars in the night sky

Revisado: 10-03-20

This book and this reading are worthy of many more than 5 little stars. My life has been enriched, and my thoughts have branched and grown in ways that will forever be a part of me.

Intense

Revisado: 12-08-19

The reading style fits perfectly with the story. Intense, multilayered, intelligent sci-fi. Can’t wait to start the next one in the trilogy.
