Review # 1 was written on 2011-12-14 00:00:00 Laurence Gilbey Things read in this: (this is more for my own personal record keeping) Loved kind of eh about No Poetry Down by the Salley Gardens by William Butler Yeats The Lake Isle of Innisfree by William Butler Yeats September 1913 by William Butler Yeats (favorite) Easter 1916 by William Butler Yeats The Second Coming by William Butler Yeats Leda and the Swan by William Butler Yeats The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock by T.S. Eliot The Hollow Men by T.S. Eliot (favorite) Not Waving but Drowning by Stevie Smith (this one is probably my favorite out of anything) Thoughts About the Person from Porlock by Stevie Smith Pretty by Stevie Smith Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night by Dylan Thomas A Far Cry From Africa by Derek Walcott Marked With D. by Tony Harrison Out by Ted Hughes Digging by Seamus Heaney The Forge by Seamus Heaney Punishment by Seamus Heaney Casualty by Seamus Heaney The Skunk by Seamus Heaney Short Stories The Mark on the Wall by Virginia Woolf Araby by James Joyce I was supposed to read Ulysses, but that didn't really happen. I still have a lot to read in that book, but all of the above is what I had to read for class (with the exception of Stevie Smith, I read her on my own and loved it). Basically this gave me a newfound love for poetry. I really enjoyed reading Yeats and Smith, and want to get my hands on more of their stuff. 'The Dead' by Joyce is in this book and I would like to read that when I have time. I'd like more time to go through it, but overall, it has some good selections in there.
