Despite the highfalutin praise by the late Anthony Hecht in its foreword, Very Far North is not a very good book. Timothy Murphy devotes far too many lines to the subject of dogs, thereby giving new meaning to the term "doggerel." However, amid imitations from the Chinese and ditties on the woes of being both a millionaire and a farmer, one can occasionaly hear hints of musical genius-- though the genius belongs to another age, and to other poets.
