Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Bradford Morrow is an outstanding writer. Don't let the fact that he is both insightful and intelligent keep you away from this delightful mystery. The Diviner's Tale is a page-turner that will subtly change the way you look at the everyday world around you. Enjoy The Diviner's Tale and you will want to pass it along to friends.

Collected Poems of Dylan Thomas
by
Dylan Thomas
Christopher Sanderson
, November 18, 2010
We've all had books that were a real friend, and The Collected Poems of Dylan Thomas: The Original Edition was mine through that five years of hard time we call High School. The Collected Poems of Dylan Thomas: The Original Edition was never out of my backpack through all of the lonely, odd days when I was my own Holden Caulfield wandering around in a new town where everyone but me was already old friends. At least there was always a tree in good weather or a lost nook in the hallway in bad where I could curl up and marvel at Dylan Thomas in the form of this book. His shaping of the book as his own introduction to his work provides a subtle subtext for each of the incredible poems. Alone in the shadows, the reflected light of his verbal fireworks lit up my imagination and I began to daydream that I could write, too, and that there might be some expression that I could give to the world that would approach this kind of marvel. I've spent an entire career trying to live up to that daydream, and never been sorry for it. If you care about the English language for any reason at all, you must have The Collected Poems of Dylan Thomas: The Original Edition and read it and keep it. Other than Shakespeare, I've never read a poet who showed off the possibilities of our language so deeply and so well. CCS November 18, 2010
