The Immortal Evening: A Legendary Dinner with… por Stanley Plumly
Hmmm... hard to review this one. It was different, interesting. I wish the focus had been solely on the conversation between artist Haydon and poets Keats, Wordsworth, and Lamb, but it kept jumping around from the "immortal evening" when all were present to other places and times and artists who seemed to have nothing to do with that evening. It was incredibly repetitious, yet left many questions unanswered. I felt the book gave me the same info (a subjective POV of the author) repeatedly but left out so many realities. Interesting facts, but you had to dig for them.… (más)
These are the kinds of poems I do not like. Awkward constructions, twisted odd metaphors, minimal punctuation, dense imagery all prevent me from enjoying this book of poetry. Unfortunately, the poems he read were not in any of the books he had for sale – at least none in the ones I bought sound even vaguely familiar.
Maybe the poet, reading this kind of poetry, knows where the commas should be. But the casual reader is lost. I read a couple I mildly liked, but most of these were less than enjoyable. 2 stars
