Wonderful collection of poems divided in 13 categories. I didn't enjoy all the selections equally, but there's a general elegance of language that makes this book a delight. 600 pages in length, you don't want to read this book all at once. Rather sit back in your chair by the window, with your tea and enjoy couple of poems every now and then.

Never really can finish a book like this, always finding something to tug at the feels.

Currently held by Page 230 “My Life Closed Twice” by Emily Dickinson.
