(And what are you doing, walking around a cemetery at night, in the first place?!?) Well, SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY, originally published in 1915, provides all the details, in "free verse" format, which most non-readers of poetry should not find in the least bit intimidating. These voices from beyond the grave are not simply reverent and spiritual -- many of them are angry, and insulting, and cynical, and humorous, and sad -- and most of them are far more wiser than we living might give them credit. I have recommended this collection for over 50 years, for both those who love poetry, and for those who find poetry intimidating -- so give it a try: I think you'll enjoy it! Shipping charges include postage (including USPS Tracking on domestic shipments), packaging materials, labor & fuel (the nearest post office is 14 MILES away!); but I do combine shipping charges on multiple items -- so fill up that cart NOW an' save some $$$!
