One great and memorable poem justifies a life - work
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Reading through this volume I find it difficult to become deeply engaged. Something in the archaic, quaint language of much of the poetry deters. Yet there is a poem, the poem of all the anthologies that is a great and memorable one, one that justifies a life- work. " How do I love thee , Let me count the ways" is one of the most beautiful and inspiring love- poems ever written.
Some of the best love poetry ever written
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poetry, especially the "Sonnets from the Portuguese," is beautiful, intelligent, and honest love poetry. Anyone who has experienced the doubts, fears, and transformation of love will recognize the truth of the poet's struggle to trust and to love.
