I have loved poetry since I was a child. One of my dreams as an adult in a technical world is to have the ability to have poetry with me all the time -- Kindle has the ability to fulfill this wish.As a start, I began browsing Amazon's list of available poetry. I was leery, because I was certain some of these probably had been converted without consideration for indexing or making sure the poems looked as the authors intended. So,I requested samples of many books, and found that I was correct. For all of the "classics" that I sampled, the formatting was abysmal and there was no index. I sampled one "self published" volume which was beautifully formatted -- but the content was abysmal. It did prove it could be done, though.
When I came upon this edition in the list, I found this statement: "This kindle digital edition of Renascence and Other Poems has been professionally designed and maintains the quality of the original classic publication." "Hooray!" I thought, and purchased it immediately, without bothering with a sample. As you have probably surmised, I was so disappointed.
There is no index or table of contents. Long poems (Renascence in particular) are formatted more like paragraphs for a novel than lines of poetry. There is no break between the poems -- titles are not in bold or italics or in any other way set apart from the content of the poem itself. If you were a reader who is not familiar with the works, you might not be able to tell where one poem ended and another began.
I still am looking forward to being able to easily carry around electronic editions of my favorites, because I am certain someday someone will publish e-versions of poetry volumes that are equal to the print versions. Maybe there are some already out there that I have yet to find.
I did give this two stars rather than just one, because the content still is the searing work that spoke to my heart when I first discovered it on my Mother's bookshelf when I was a teenager.
Oh -- as a side note -- there is no category of "poetry" in the list of Kindle book. I search for poetry to find it.

Renascence and other poems Edna St Vincent Millay Mitchell Kennerley 9781171597537 Books Reviews
This is the first book of poetry I have purchased through . So profound, it has touched me deeply. Do yourself a favor and buy this book.
My absolute favorite Edna St. Vincent Millay poem. Such depth when you think she was only 17 when she wrote it.
Edna rocks.
Edna St Vincent Millay to the unfamiliar was one of the greatest female poets, and certainly one of the greatest contemporary poets. Her poems are gritty, kind, unkind, reflective, nonchalant, etc. Be prepared to be sucked in to her beauty, only to have her twist the knife at the very last second.
I was looking for a copy of the classic poem Renascence and ended up with this attractive version. The format is pleasing, and the type is easy to read. This book has more insightful poems as well. Millay needs more exposure as the major poet she is.
I had an old paperback copy that I somehow manage to have lost. It was great to find this all-time favorite as a kindle book.
I cannot recommend this book enough.
