Readers’ Take on the Book
See how readers are connecting with The Giant’s Book of Poems. Honest reactions, praise, and thoughts from those who’ve experienced Daniel Freedman’s collection.
Okay this book had me snorting on the subway… like i couldn’t stop laughing at some of the ridiculous stuff. Then a few pages later, i’m wiping tears. Honestly, never thought a poetry book could be this chaotic and hilarious at the same time.

Wasn’t expecting much, but the poems are wild. One minute i’m laughing at a giant lobster attacking a power plant, the next i’m quietly crying over memories of family. It’s absurd, real, funny, and heartbreaking all at once. Never read anything like it.

Flipped a page, someone’s sweater is a metaphor for grief. Next page, a boxing rabbit. Next, I’m thinking about every weird little thing in my apartment. This book makes you notice life in the weirdest, funniest, and saddest ways.

I grabbed it on a whim but wow… some poems hit me so hard about love, loss, and family. i found myself staring out the window thinking about my own life. It’s messy, human, and strangely comforting all at once.

I found myself laughing and choking back tears on the same page. Daniel Freedman pulls me from my mundane kitchen into a world of giant lobsters, vaudeville tricks, and tender grief over his mother. Somehow, in the absurdity and the intimacy, I saw my own messy, fragile life reflected.
Thomas Kelly

I opened this book on a rainy afternoon and didn’t move for hours. Between satire, domestic scraps, and elegies for friends long gone, I felt like I was walking through someone’s memory, messy, surreal, and raw. It hurt, it dazzled, it reminded me why poetry matters at all.
Elizabeth
Director
I laughed until I cried, and cried until I laughed. Freedman’s surreal collages of pop culture, grief, and kitchen minutiae pierced me with recognition. This book doesn’t just show life, it lives life on the page, chaotic, tender, absurd, and impossibly intimate.
Sarah Thompson
Manager
Reading Freedman’s poems is like wandering through a city where every corner hides a miracle or a disaster. One moment I’m laughing at a giant lobster attack, the next, I’m holding my breath for a mother’s funeral ritual. It’s messy, human, and heartbreakingly alive.
