Review # 1 was written on 2009-01-20 00:00:00 Anthony Rael I really enjoyed this collection of poems. It was interesting to look at how the symbolism of the nightingale has spanned across cultures and time among poets. I especially enjoyed that they viewed the nightingale in different ways. Some finding the bird to be inherently sad, while others thought it was love or joy. A great way to group the poems as well. |
Review # 2 was written on 2012-11-14 00:00:00 Greg Smith One of the (few) truly *traumatic* aspects I experienced - several years ago - around the decision to move (from a pastoral environment to the hubub a large city often brings) was the loss of the large - and numerous - bird feeding stations I maintained in my "countryside digs". I felt sad . . my cat was totally devastated! Edward Hirsch chose a diverse array of sonnets and prose in "To a Nightingale" that kept me entertained and (nostalgically) smiling! |
