Overview

Drawing upon everyday incidents, common situations, and rural imagery, Robert Frost fashioned poetry of great lyrical beauty and potent symbolism. His language is simple, clear, and colloquial, yet dense with meaning and wider significance. This brilliant collection features some of Frost's greatest works, including "The Road Not Taken," "Asking for Roses," "The Death of the Hired Man," "In the Home Stretch," "Into My Own," "Meeting and Passing," "Mending Wall," and more. These poems are brought to life by several award-winning performers including Susan Anspach, Roscoe Lee Browne, Elliott Gould, Arte Johnson, Melissa Manchester, Kevin McCarthy, Jean Smart, Michael Tucker, Alfre Woodard, and Efrem Zimbalist, Jr.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

“Of all the poetry written in our generation, Frost's is most likely to stand the test of time.” —Lewis Gannett

“Of U.S. poets, none has lodged poems more surely where they will be hard to get rid of. . . . His lines often have the trenchancy and inevitability of folk sayings.” —Time

“No other American poet has so much art or so much subject matter.” —Mark Van Doren

“Frost was the first American who could be honestly reckoned a master-poet by world standards.” —Robert Graves
