New Hampshire

By: Robert Frost

Narrated by: John Lescault

Robert Frost (1874-1963) was the most celebrated poet in America for most of the 20th century. Although chiefly associated with the life and landscapes of New England, his work embodies penetrating and often dark explorations of universal themes.

New Hampshire features Frost's meditations on rural life, love, and death, delivered in the voice of a soft-spoken New Englander. Critics have long marveled at the poet's gift for capturing the speech of the region's natives and his realistic evocations of the area's landscapes. This compilation, first published in 1923, earned Frost the first of his four Pulitzer Prizes and includes several of his best-known poems: "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening", "Nothing Gold Can Stay", and "Fire and Ice", as well as verse based on such traditional songs as "I Will Sing You One-O".

Winner of the 1924 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry.

Nice to hear Frost’s poetry

Nice story from Robert Frost about New Hampshire. Them a reading of a bunch of his poems. Nice alternative to just story after story or news of the day.

As always Frost’s poetry can send me into the woods or listening for the birdsongs that he mentions.

The narrator did a good job. I was surprised that there was mention about the internet and such - obviously not done by Mr Frost but added by some editor ( not mentioned) since the book was originally printed in 1924

I fear I under appreciate Robert Frost’s poetry.

As I read or listen to Mr. Frost’s poetry I often belittle it as too simple, too primitive. But They say that the true master is one who promotes just such a reaction among her readers and/or listeners.

I throughly enjoyed the narration and want to hear more works read by this artist.

Frost, the Pragmatic Poet

Frost's pulitzer prize winning poetry collection is so much a part of the American lexicon it almost feels as if it's always existed.
Somehow earthy and reaching for the stars at the same time.

A great book

A wonderful book that I found to be developmental and maturative for a young man comming of age such as myself. I found this book to be worthwhile and generally intelligent and I further highly recommend this book.

New Hampshire by Robert Frost

Treat yourself to the beauty of this book. The narrator John Lescault delivers this with what appears to be personal understanding of nature and the town as Robert Frost wrote this special wonderful book.
