Lyrical Selections from Myths and Legends, too. *by K***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 13, 2021* "Monster Verse" is a very interesting collection of poetry. Most are not your typical poems. Several of them are from well-knows myths and legends, e.g., Beowulf, The Odyssey, King Arthur, and Jason & the Argonauts. There are excerpts from Shakespeare, Tolkien, and Ovid.While I enjoyed a lot of the selections, I didn't absolutely adore many of the poems. James Weldon Johnson's "The White Witch" was probably my favorite. It had great narrative, was quite descriptive, and was clearly written by a man who fears sensuous women. Great fun. "The Bride of Frankenstein" was also a winner as Edward Field crafted a scary Halloween poem ("The Baron decided to mate the monster,/to breed him perhaps,/in the interest of pure science, his only god.") Pierre de Ronsard's "Invective Against Denise, A Witch" has great imagery and is quite scary.There were only a few I really didn't like. Thom Gunn's "Hitch-Hiker" reeks of pretentiousness and really doesn't make sense. Spenser's "The Quelling of the Blatant Beast" from The Faerie Queene was written more than 500 years ago and used too many obscure words. The selection from Robert Lowell's "The Mermaid" was a little too abstruse.All in all there are a lot of fun poems in this anthology. Some are very gruesome, many are frightening, and most will make you wonder where the poet's head was at when they wrote the poem. Recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a great little book to keep in your knapsack and dip ... *by E***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 2, 2015* This is a great little book to keep in your knapsack and dip into. Though compact, it has most of the chestnuts you'd expect in an anthology of monstrous verse, from "The Kraken" to "Jabberwocky," from Grendel to the Grinch. There are also a lot of poets and monsters I'd never heard of before, which has made it something of a treasure trove, for me, at least, and a number of living or relatively modern poets, like A. E. Stallings, sit very well with the old masters. Well worth the price if you want to be amused, bemused, or other muse-like activities. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/20979797-monster-verse-poems-human-and-inhuman-everymans-library-pocket-poets](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/20979797-monster-verse-poems-human-and-inhuman-everymans-library-pocket-poets) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-17*
