It's called Essential Goethe, but it's just a compilation of this and that which maybe the amateur would be impressed but I'm not at all. Faust part 1 but not part 2? No Werther? Fragments of this and that. I have no idea what basis this editor went by to put this large book together. I'd rather he just make it a book on Goethe's works with excessive quotes, but honestly, that's asking a life time of study, and this was surely more convenient to just smash what a passerby would find eye-catching.


I actually bought Some small name poets books on amazon. One book called disconnect is mental health poetry. I bought that one cuz it was interesting plus I hope to help exercise my brain since I do that type of poetry. I also bought Inward by Yung Pueblo. He does humanist philosophy poetry.
