About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox reading of Summer of Love by Joyce Kilmer. Read in English by Larry Wilson; Stefan Von Blon; raghavdhandi8; David Lawrence; Julian Pratley; KevinS; Keara Hayes; Alan Mapstone; Phebe Hays; Sera Gonzalez; Melody Khoriaty; Richard Green; Valentina Vocelli; L Dean Misenhimer; Andrew Gaunce; Kathleen Moore and LS Kim. Joyce KIlmer may yet be an obscure poet had he not had his poem, Trees, published in Poetry in 1913. But, this book precedes that, and shows his flowing lyricism and the dripping sentimentality of his earlier work. - Summary by Larry Wilson
