"Never before has the delight and wonder experienced in young love, in which is implicit physical discovery, been conveyed with such touching honesty or with rhapsody so involving unconscious pathos. Those who seek to drag any honest writing through the gutters of their own minds will do the same with this. Those who are not afraid of the strange miracle of life will understand this brave verse." --William Rose Ben???t

My husband bought this book in 1968 and read it to me 100's of times. The words never ceased to touch me in ways no other poetry ever has (with the possible exception of Rumi). The jazz singer Arthur Prysock did an album where he recited select passages of this book. Read this amazing book and if you have the chance listen to the album. Some things really do get better with age.
