Review: Make It New - This is a handsome, convenient edition of some of the best poetry of Pound's career. That means it's a handsome, convenient edition of some of the best poetry in English, complete with very useful glosses and an elegant introduction. New to Pound? Dive in, but perhaps consider taking with you this superb guide The Poetry of Ezra Pound (Bison Book) . Later, if you're still intrigued and can find it, grab Pound's Cantos as well. Here's hoping that Mr, Sieburth find his way to similarly annotating the equally fine "Rock Drill" sequence.
Review: Great for a cross country road trip - I read this out loud last summer during a cross country road trip. It's an incredible work and reading it with someone else provided lots of material for discussion as we whiled the miles away.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeously wrought
*by V***M on July 6, 2006*

This magnum opus of one of the most celebrated and controversial figures in literature was written while he was being held in detention for treason. He was a fascist, and anti-Semite, but how the chicks, and Allen Ginsberg, dug him. And you should, too--politics aside. Pound's writings on poetry were monumental in the formation of greats like T.S. Eliot, William Carlos Williams, and the aforementioned Ginsberg. The Cantos are gorgeously wrought, and range from exquisitely beautiful to fantastically erudite and opaque. And it's fun to watch him make up arbitrary meanings for Chinese ideograms because some posthumously debunked scholar misled him.
