Love for Layton

What a delightful anthology this is.I found this collection of charming love poetry tucked away neatly in the miniscule poetry section of my friendly neighborhood chain bookstore, and I couldn't be happier with my luck. There is enough warmth, humor and wry introspection in Layton's poetry to mark each poem as a cornerstone of Canadian literature. It is certainly tempting to label it so myself. Canadian or not -- to pass this up would be criminal, so stop reading and start ordering.
