| Quotation | Reading Lorca again-what a marvelous poet, so alive, so much strength and vividness and sound. I can think of no modern poet that gives me more genuine poetic satisfaction. Wholeness. Primitive and modern. Beauty. Toughness. Music. Substance. Variety. Originality. Character. Color. Andalusian weather. Finished Abinger Harvest, embarrassed a little by the pageant but loved all the rest of it. Finished Isaias |
