What a complete surprise....this is an absolutely outstanding piece of work!
I listened to it all in one sitting...I couldn't turn it off. I laughed, and I wept....and all of it made me think. This is a wonderful collection. I was so stunned at the depth of emotion I experienced listening it that I had to write this review immediately to inform other like-minded individuals of what they've been missing.
I was vaguely familiar with some of the poems, but I never quite understood them when reading them in print. What a difference HEARING them has made to my perspective! Listening to Michael Caine, and Judi Dench, and Ralph Fiennes and all of the others was a real pleasure. The emotions conjured up by these virtuoso readers has really opened my eyes to how powerful poetry can be. The order that they were presented was very appealing as well, starting with poems about birth and childhood, through those about romantic love and war and middle age, to those about old age and death. And managing to end such a collection on a hopeful note was truly inspiring. I just loved it!
I may never attempt to READ poetry again, but I fully expect that I will LISTEN to this collection many times in the future.
I'd like to express my thanks to another reviewer, ESK from Russia, for taking the time to list all of the poems, their authors and the name of the readers. Very helpful.
This is a treat to the soul....HIGHLY recommended.
I'd never understood poetry's appeal...until now!

Some not read or heard in many years.
Even if you are not so interested in the Seven Ages aspect, this is a very good selection.
Thanks reviewer 'ESK' , for the list.

Would you consider the audio edition of Seven Ages to be better than the print version?
I consider this a compliment to the print version and to be enjoyed with the written work.Any additional comments?
I listened to the poems as a warm up for my own writing. I also listened to the poems while studying for a comprehensive literature exam. These works were helpful in successfully completing the test.Life is poetry and poetry gives life

I wish there was a Whispersync for Voice book so than it would be possible to read and listen to the poems in the same time.Whispersync for Voice book:
