Poetry Essentials
Whitman, Dickinson, Keats, Blake and the great epics.
A shelf of poetry that covers the essentials: the two American originals, the English Romantics, Milton's epic and the Homeric poems that started everything. Poetry reads best in the reader's scrolling mode with a serif font; try the Focus theme at night.
