DETAILS
Have been a fan of Robert Frost since early childhood, brought back so many memories.
Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for this sweet gift. I can't wait to share this with a dear friend of mine. Great quality, packaged with care!
Love it! So cute for my guest room.
Simple but meditative and inspiring. The perfect size for a coffee table or just to pick up for a few minutes
Been on my list for years. Glad your shop is still thriving!
I'm reading old Robert Frost in the new Obvious State edition.
Bold Impresstionist art sparks attention
to the lay of words on the page,
the carpenter's craft of each line.
Read slowly aloud one hears the song.
Roads and birches, woods and snow,
stones and walls, windows and ridges,
the tensions of talk and silences
all rise from the page like crops.
Old man, you bring it close and into light.
Beautifully illustrated
I love Robert Frost! Now i have a collection of his poems in one place!
Love these little keepsake books !
The illustrations are beautiful, yet they overwhelm the text at times. The books are travel sized. My opinion is a high end magazine format would be a better fit.
Very nice all good
Everything was great, from the product itself which is absolutely wonderful down to the shipping. I can't recommend it enough. Thank you.
Beautiful and inspiring!
I keep buying these for friends and they love the books! I like to keep a few handy as little gifts, I gift them to myself - they make great reading material before bedtime. Beautiful illustrations and poems!
Lovely book. Would highly recommend this shop.
Robert Frost is lovely, and I was introduced to some poems I didn't know. The formatting on this one did make it harder to tell when one poem ended and the next started, so they blended as one, for better or worse.
Apple picking. Boys bending birch tree branches. The woods. The snow. Darkness.
This is a beautiful book! Frost’s words are as timeless as ever, and Robertson’s illustrations just light them up!
Both of my favorites are in here, which made me even happier to read it, and glad that I bought it!
Beautiful and well packaged ; arrived quickly as well
Perfect stocking stuffer!
This is a cute book of this family's much-loved poems. The spine is quite tight, may be better as the book is used.
Perfect stocking stuffer for those who treasure the works of Robert Frost...or not...maybe they will learn to love his words
Another beautiful little pocket sized book from the publsher Obvious State. This time it's a few Robert Frost poems along with beautiful illustrations and typography work. A perfect read on a cold rainy or snowy day, with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate as you watch it all from a window. It's a contemplative book of Frosts poetry, and I'm sure I'll revisit it often when the mood strikes.
Christmas gift for my daughter-in-law. I know she's going to love it!
Bought this for my nephew, Miles. Hes a special boy
Lovely book. Graphically beautifully. High quality, well made.
The quality is great, I love the simplicity of the artwork. And I love Robert Frost so win/win!
Robert Frost has always been my favorite poet!
The illustrations are quite lovely and add to the poetry inside. Would be GREAT for gifting!
I love this, can't wait to read it to my grandchildren
It was ok.. nothing special ..
Way too much money for the book.
Was disappointed and I bought 3 to give as gifts.
These are sweet volumes, something to have near your bedsire or tucked into luggage for your trip. Lovely typeset.
Paper book I thought is was a hardback
Gonna make a great gift ~
