By: | Series: Everyman's Library Pocket Poets SeriesA menagerie of poems—collected in a gorgeous hardcover volume—that displays the breathtaking animal world through exquisite verse.
An anonymous Anglo-Saxon poet praises the whale. Shakespeare sympathizes with the hunted hare. Marianne Moore tries to catch a jelly-fish. Virgil and Emily Dickinson contemplate bees. Kipling lulls a baby seal to sleep. From East to West, from ancient times to modern, from Mei Yu Ch'en on swarming mosquitoes to William Cullen Bryant's solitary waterfowl and Rainer Maria Rilke's enchanted gazelle, from Auden on cats and dogs to E.E. Cummings's verse in the shape of a grasshopper to James Merrill's vision of the octopus, here—selected by John Hollander—are 136 poems that provide exhilarating access to literature's glorious lyric zoo.
Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a jewel-toned jacket.

A nice, comfortable t-shirt with a bit higher moc neck
Size: Small, Color: White
I wear tee shirts a lot, but, because I need something a little warmer at times I wondered if such a thing as a moc-neck tee existed. This shirt is soft and comfortable, not tight but more tee shirt- like in fit.

Wash before wearing — the dye will run
Size: Small, Color: Royal Blue
Make sure you wash this shirt before wearing. Maybe even two washes. The color WILL run and dye your skin. (I was impatient and wore it before washing and ended up with a blue torso)
Otherwise, it fits well. I’d put it as a regular fit rather than a slim fit. Very soft, albeit synthetic, material.
