Book Reviews of Fear of Dreaming: The Selected Poems (Poets, Penguin)

Book Review: Great writing
Summary: 3 Stars

I became a fan of Jim Carroll's work after hearing his poetry in the movie "Basketball Diaries" starring Leonardo Dicaprio.

As a result, I found Carroll's poetry to be entertaining, to flow with grace, and to be rich in the use of imagery.

But after I read this book, I was a bit disappointed. Although, it was well written, it just was not that entertaining. I found the writing to be, somewhat, dry.
