I can't add much to the excellent reviews posted so far. However, I've heard people say that this book really should be bought in hardback for the illustrations and other typography. I don't think this is necessary. I'm reading it through the Kindle app on an iPad, and it looks great. The only glitch I've noticed is when the German text of a poem is longer than one page. In that case the app renders it as page 1, German text; 2, English translation; 3. continuation of German text; continuation of English translation. In a "real" book the pages would run German, continuation; English, continuation. Is this worth the significant price differential? For me, emphatically yes. The illustrations are rendered in full color in the app and look good.

Bostridge's analysis of all of the songs is fascinating, none more so than the one about the charcoal-burner's hut (Rast). This, and others, will make you think twice and more about a cycle you think you know well.
