Slam Dunk Performance Poetry
I really found this book entertaining as well as inspirational.Sitting in the library, reading this book from cover to cover in two days really helped me come up with alot of material and ideas for new pieces.

not for serious poets
I'll give this book two stars: one for the excellent lay-out (the pictures and the quotes and the basic way the book is presented), and another one for the poems that were done by seasoned poets. The rest of the poetry that was published in this anthology is by teens and it is HOR-EN-DOUS! HORRIBLE! This is definitely a good one for, like, 10-16 year olds, but even so, not if you really are a serious poet and, at least, know what poetry is all about.

Slam - an introduction to a new type of poetry
This is a great book for people, especially teenagers, who have been stuck in classrooms listening to teachers drone on about rhyming and iambic pentameter all of their lives. I don't know if it's the greatest "slam" book of all time, but it is a great introduction to the general type of poetry. The book is very inspirational to me, and I like how quotes and song lyrics are added to the sides of the page, making each page totally interesting. It inspired me to do one of the few school projects I've ever enjoyed, a difficult poetry project on William Carlos Williams. A few months after purchasing this I got "Bum Rush The Page", another poetry book I really enjoy. Overall, it's a great book for any teen to have, filled with our everyday emotions but also teaching us something about poetry that English class doesn't seem to want us to know.

This Book Is The Best Poetry Book I've Read!
OMG!!If you are a big fan of teen-age angst poetry or just teen poetry and general this is the book for you! I think that this book is so amazing and even though I don't own it yet (I checked it out of the library for like 3 months) I recomend it to every teenager or tween out there!

it was ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh okay.
OH MY GOD!... THIS BOOK IS LIKE TOTALLY AMAZING!... I HAVE NEVER READ ANYTHING AS LIKE TOTALLY AMAZING AS LIKE THIS BOOK! OMIGOD! I LOVED IT! EVERY MINUTE OF IT! EVERY EVERY EVERY EVERY MINUTE OF IT! gagagagagaga im gunna marry this book ! ... Read more

Product Description
"Ailments of My Mind" is a collection of contemporary and free-style poetry that offers an intimate and often heartbreaking portrait of life, love and tragedy. Inspired by the loss of his mother, Timm Dolley delves deep into the roots of his past to decipher the beauty of passion and the pain of separation as he struggles to find peace in life after death. From “disposition” to “revelation,” he confronts his homosexuality, death, stereotypes, theology and modern-day society while exuding a charm and crassness that is both quirky and disarming. ...

Well, try this month's Spotlight on for size: NEIL GAIMAN and SALVADOR LARROCA! Top that! On your short list of respected writers from the last couple decades of comics that have broken through to popular acceptance, you've got Alan Moore and...Brother Neil!

Nahhh....we'll have nothing to talk about with him! And what's there to say about Salvador Larroca besides the fact that he's one of the best artists working today? Well...lots, actually! For one thing, we wanna know why he's so great; how he can be so prolific; and what it is that inspires the drama, power and sensuality he brings to his pages! Whether it's the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, Elektra or Spider-Man, he's been entrusted with Marvel's biggest characters for a reason - and SPOTLIGHT will cover his career from top to bottom, with a special focus on his current work on Peter Milligan's X-MEN. ...

Review of Gaiman's Death:Cost
I'm sorry to say I was disappointed with this comic. The incredibly short narrative provides an interesting encounter with the character death, but there is little development or dynamism. Beyond my fascination with Gaiman, I can think of no reason to read this book. Further, the comic closes with an odd exploitation of death, as a public safety spokesman against STDs. Personally, I found an uninspiring work.

Great illustration, boring book
If you enjoy top rate illustration, then buy this book.If however you're looking for a well thought out concept for a story, pass on it.Dumb and boring.

Wonderful
This makes for a great addition to the Sandman universe. The bonus features in here are also nice. For any Sandman completist, this is a definite must-add. It's great to see Death with a couple of stories of her own. Too bad they didn't make additional novels for the other members of the Endless.

Great Read
This graphic novel is great. The ending is funny...the VERY end, but this is about life and living, not worrying about the rigors of life, but living and realizing the living may cost a high price, but it may ultimately be worth it. Live in the moment and live to live and love, live for yourself and no one else. It's great.

A Living Death
This Graphic Novel is decent, but doesn't compare to The Sandman Series. It is still worth a read. ... Read more

Product Description

There is a dark king who rules our dreams from a place of shadows and fantastic things. He is Morpheus, the lord of story. Older than humankind itself, he inhabits -- along with Destiny, Death, Destruction, Desire, Despair, and Delirium, his Endless sisters and brothers -- the realm of human consciousness. His powers are myth and nightmare -- inspirations, pleasures, and punishments manifested beneath the blanketing mist of sleep.

Surrender to him now.

A stunning collection of visions, wonders, horrors, hallucinations, and revelations from Clive Barker, Barbara Hambly, Tad Williams, Gene Wolfe, Nancy A. Collins, and sixteen other incomparable dreamers -- inspired by the groundbreaking, bestselling graphic novel phenomenon by Neil Gaiman.

Novices need not fear to tread; this is good stuff
I haven't experienced the total Sandman world so am commenting from the 'some but not all perspective' which many potential readers may have. First is the short story structure itself: the beauty of the changing voices & visions pays the price of admission alone, even if you've only the barest knowledge of the Sandman oeuvre. This collection is like the gates to faery: within and between these short & beautifully tantalizing bits of prose you may glimpse Something just beyond. Sometimes you see it; sometimes (for the non-initiate?) it passes you by but for me it was an altogether enjoyable experience. That Gaiman chose & introduces each piece is a small sweetness before each story-course.

The Preface, by Frank McConnell, is a lovely and literate tale itself though I doubt the author would consider it so; nevertheless it is a true telling of who we are, and an excellently well written introduction to the Sandman world. It is exactly enough to know what to expect from these gifted authors whose words fill in and leave out what's needed.

I bought this because I've been enchanted by the works of Barbara Hambly for decades and wanted to read her story "Each Damp Thing"; she spins an exquisitely crafted tale of Dreaming herein.If you're a reader of Hambly's, or any author in the book, you won't be disappointed by their story in this collection & 'your' author's tale will take you by the hand through the others.

The Sandman
Neil Gaiman is an amazing writer and it is because of his stories about "The Sandman" that I became a comic book fan. If you can suspend belief and open your mind to the realm of imagination, you can step into the world that Mr. Gaiman created revolving around the King of Dreams. The entire series of the Sandman will leave you riveted and wanting more. Take the time to explore the realm of dreams and you will not be disappointed!

Neil Gaiman's Best
I love the Sandman graphic novel series,so when any of them come out in paperback they're a must-read.These can't be missed,they'll pull you in and not let you go...

Neil Gaiman's Sandman, a comics' masterpiece
The Neil Gaiman's begining work, Sandman, coalize creation and the imaginary. I met the writter in São Paulo, 2000, and I see that he has a sensibility needed for a great author. Don't miss it.

Super Reader
A collection of stories related to the Sandman saga, placed in and around these stories, but unrelated. The odd story here has an extremely tenuous connection to the aforementioned, and generally speaking, those with less do not work as well. Sandman fans should still enjoy this, however.
