Reviews for Chicago Poems
43 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I love Carl Sandburg's imagery!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is Sandburg's first book published in 1916. In additions to the famous poems in praise of the city and "Fog" there are meditations on lost love, death, and the squalor of urban life.
