Summary: All the Hughes you'll ever need
Comment: If you want Langston Hughes poems for a class or for personal use/reference, look no further. 860 poems puts you firmly in the completist category of Hughes's poetic output, so go ahead and fill out your library with this edition. A necessary buy for poets, teachers of literature of any stripe, and history buffs of the 20s through the 60s.

Rating: 5
Summary: Essential
Comment: This is one of America's poets. Like Robert Frost or Billy Collins all should own and read Langston Hughes.

Rating: 5
Summary: An American as Well as an African-American Classic
Comment: It is easy to take for granted how much of American culture has its roots in African-American culture, especially literature and music. If you are looking for an example of this notion, you have come to the right place. Langston Hughes's poetry is steeped in Jazz rhythms and social consciousness; it is, at the same time, an assertion of black civil rights and an astute observation of black (and, by extension, American) cultural awareness. In short, it is "must reading" for anyone with an interest in any of these areas.

It's a big book, certainly not something one can devour in a single sitting. Then, again, one wouldn't want to; this is a collection of poems to savor and reflect upon.
