Inaam Al-dulaimi nnaoshaldu6703 — The only thing I can think to say about WB Yeats is that, despite the controversy that has enshrouded him for almost a century, he is not "one of those poets you either love or hate." If I were to read this collection from cover to cover (exhaustive annotations included. I won't ever do this, by the way), it's likely that I would come out really ambivalent. In fact, you don't even need to read the fucking book. Just take a really good Anglo-Irish Lit. class and the lectures on Yeats's life can't avoid the fact that he turned into a crotchety old man. Much like Wordsworth, Yeats turned into a real bastard. The youth and occasional naiveté he embraced in his early work (and probably his most immediately mellifluous) was an object of so much contempt in his later life. It was for a very real reason. His "mistake" (in the spirit of my irresolute opinion of the man, I only call it a mistake when I'm in a bad mood) was that the things that made him write were the things of political life. If you know anything about Ireland in the early 20th Century, you know it was a political and militaristic disaster, an everyday torrent of explosions and gunfire and homemade bombs and shit. Over the years, Yeats began to feel almost responsible for the political strife that continued to plague his beloved country. Having one of the most remarkable bodies of work in the English language and, yes, probably inspiring a lot of people to make irresponsible choices in the defense of their Ireland disenchanted him. The man speaking in his poems suffers, but his poems don't. It's just a matter of taste, but one that doesn't have to be acquired through such a comprehensive collection. If you're not an Anglo-Irish nut like I am, I suggest you opt for the Collected Poems edited by Richard Finneran.

Gillian Ludlow gillian_ludlow — Nothing really quite like 1. seeing Tut's funerary goods in person, and 2. seeing his mummy resting in his tomb. No matter how many documentaries one has seen or books one has read....nothing quite like it.

Amber Murphy murphyambe3e78 — Oddly enough, this was assigned reading in my college Freshman year of English. It was an excellent book. I've only read one other Michener book "Space", but I've always intended to read more.
