Praise
“Melville wrote oceans of prose; the poetry didn’t lag far behind. Library of America [has issued] a comprehensive 1,000-page collection of that poetry, and if all you know of this marine master is Moby-Dick, it’s high time to dip your toes in the lyrical swash.” —Colin Fleming, The Washington Post
“One hundred years after his birth, Melville would be rediscovered on the basis of his prose. Two hundred years on, he’s due for a complete reckoning. . . . Complete Poems, edited by Hershel Parker and published on the occasion of Melville’s bicentennial, should convince any reader that Melville’s poetry was the coherent, sustained output of a conscious craftsman.” —The Times Literary Supplement
