| Customer Reviews: Total Bliss... December 22, 1998 Matt Norris (Lamplips@aol.com) (Longview, TX) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This collection of poems from Ferlinghetti opens the mind due to it's variation of poems from over the years. His style has remained the same yet we see a different side of Ferlinghetti with each era of poems. This was very enjoyable and I recommend it highly.
This compilation is fantastic! January 9, 1997 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this book after seeing Ferlinghetti speak at my
school in New Hampshire. He was fantastic, and his book is
even more so.
Buy it!

The new poems that begin this collection are wonderful; the voice is strong and sure with rich, fresh images and allusions that explode in all kinds of directions. the poems give me a chance to say, "Oh, I get that." or most of it.
I haven't gotten to the selected poems from all of his books, but I know it will be fun to read poems I haven't read in years.
This volume should be a must read for young rebels and writers; should be right up there on the shelf with On The Road and Howl

Some of these poems are really really good! Ferlinghetti has great imagination, humor, moments of enlightenment or shall i just say that his poems are really fresh and astonishingly real and immediate? From poems about underwear to poems about Mattisse art exhibits, this collection is a must have for poetry lovers!
I'd also recommend Gregory Corso's poetry collections for those of you who are interested.
