### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Few books are "NECESSARY" works of art and on art: This is one
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2022*

Tony Hoagland left us quite a legacy of first-class analysis of poetry and poets. The only other in this category is the fabulous Jane Hirshfield (Ten Windows). Unlike some highly academic critics who will fry your synapses, and at least one (un-named) who obviously has an axe grinding agenda, Tony Hoagland is the real expert delighting us with pure analysis---always hard to maintain for hundreds of pages, but anyone with a mind fired by curiosity and desire to learn the mechanics of not just poetry but great poetry, would do themselves a disservice to miss this book, and there won't be anymore from Hoagland who left us in late 2018. His humorously named, REAL SOFISTIKASHUN is a timeless gem.

    Great for beginners and how would I know what a practised poet would think?
  

*by B***M on Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2014*

This was my beginning of understanding what poetry is and how to read it and what it is all about basically. I knew as much about poetry as NASCAR racing before reading this which is nothing, what with me having a masters in brit lit and and all I felt a bit foolish but I forded ahead and and got my feet on dry land with the help of Mr. H. I highly recommend it if poetry scares you silly or is totally opaque as it was to me. Can't thank the fellow enough for writing it. I had memorized a lot of poetry in the hopes that it would take but am now firmly convinced that a good teacher is necessary and Tony Hoagland will mesmerize, entertain and remove the veils that afflict you.
