"Discussions of prosody usually make for yawns and heavy eyelids, but John Hollander's book, now usefully augmented, is a sparkling performance. He defines and illustrates the forms and means of English verse in such a way as to teach us, also, the spirit of play which animates even the gravest poem." -- Richard Wilbur
"Marvelously comprehensive, clarifying and useful ... also a delight to read."
John Reardon, Los Angeles Times Book Review -- John Reardon, Los Angeles Times Book Review
"The most useful guide of its kind in years. It is at once comprehensive, lucid, concise, and fun." -- G. E. Murray, Chicago Sun-Times
