Summary: A Quiet Poet
Comment: Robert Frost is not as impressively artistic as other readers might be, but his quiet unassuming style suits the nature of his poetry, and emphasizes how well this consummate poet uses rhyme and rhythm without ever breaking natural speaking patterns to do so. The two cassettes include the poems everybody studies and memorizes. "The Road Not Taken," " Fire and Ice," "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening," "Mending Walls," "Birches," and "Death of a Hired Man" are all here. They also include poems that are less familiar to some of us. "A Considerable Speck" is a lovely encounter with a small bug that I had not noticed before.

The breadth of this set makes it a wonderful asset for those who love poetry, and those who hope to teach others to love it. The one drawback is the very short pauses between poems. It is sometimes hard to tell where one poem ends and the next begins if you are not familiar with them.
