Though the sedge is withered from the lake, Below are both the original and revised version of the poem: The original version, 1819 ![]() The poem is simple in structure with twelve stanzas of four lines each in an ABCB rhyme scheme. The poem continues to be referenced in many works of literature, music, art, and film. ![]() The fairy inspired several artists to paint images that became early examples of 19th-century femme fatale iconography. The poem is about a fairy who condemns a knight to an unpleasant fate after she seduces him with her eyes and singing. ![]() Ĭonsidered an English classic, the poem is an example of Keats' poetic preoccupation with love and death. The title was derived from the title of a 15th-century poem by Alain Chartier called La Belle Dame sans Mercy. " La Belle Dame sans Merci" ("The Beautiful Lady Without Mercy") is a ballad produced by the English poet John Keats in 1819. ![]() ![]() ![]() …a parasitic connection with other biographies about Hitler, Freud, and whoever I’m going to write the final biography on (either Tom Cruise or Frederick Douglass) at, the only viable marketplace in the twenty-first century publishing world… If somebody buys, say, The Freud Reader, which currently sells quite well at Amazon, and the same person buys Freud: The Penultimate Biography, thinking it’s similar to The Freud Reader, Amazon pools the titles together on its Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought page and a snowball effect ensues. This last part, Wilson admits, is flawed: “Blurbs don’t sell books.” What does sell books is metadata. ![]() They are experiments in deconstructing the supposedly cynical matrices of literature in the Internet age, where units are defined and shifted algorithmically, by guilty-sometimes arbitrary-associations with other books, and what Wilson calls Superior Authors. ![]() Certainly not biographies in the conventional sense of the genre, these titles may not be, strictly, books, whatever those are these days.

Now available as a New Directions paperbook, Volume VI: 27 Wagons Full of Cotton and Other Short Plays, contains sixteen one-act plays in Williams early. 27 Wagons Full of Cotton and Other Plays Tennessee Williams ISBN: 9780811202251 Out of stock Acting Edition 15.95 Overview The thirteen one-act plays collected in this volume include some of Tennessee Williams's finest and most powerful work. He can compress the basic meaning of life-its pathos or its tragedy, its bravery or the quality of its love-into one small scene or a few moments of dialogue. Whether Williams is writing of derelict roomers in a New Orleans boarding house ( The Lady of Larkspur Lotion) or the memories of a venerable traveling salesman ( The Last of My Solid Gold Watches) or of delinquent children ( This Property is Condemned), his insight into human nature is that of the poet. Only one of these plays ( The Purification) is written in verse, but in all of them the approach to character is by way of poetic revelation. They are full of the perception of life as it is, and the passion for life as it ought to be, which have made The Glass Menagerie and A Streetcar Named Desire classics of the American theater. ![]() ![]() The book’s climax and denouement were just perfect. If Reese’s story was heartbreaking, Chase’s is gut-wrenching and soul-burning. His backstory’s resolution was, honestly, not something I saw coming. ![]() His POVs in the book dated back 6-7 years prior to his meeting Reese. Chase’s backstory, meanwhile, dragged me all the way thru the night to finish this book. Her backstory is heartbreaking, and at the end of the day, I understood why a woman like her would over-protect herself, to the point of emotional sabotage. While heroine Reese has her own quirks and bratty moments, I couldn’t help but root for her. Keeland is so adept at tempering her readers’ emotions, that I would be reading her books again and again… and never get tired of them. ![]() Keeland is so adept at tempering her readers’ emotions, that I would be reading her books again and again… and never get tired of them.Ĭhase Parker and Reese Annesley met in a setting that’s as bad and embarrassing way as it could possibly be, that I had to mentally prepare myself against hating the heroine (again) too much that I’d stop reading another book I’ve purchased. Her latest, “ Bossman,” epitomizes all the adjectives that I’ve thrown at it, and more. ![]() Vi Keeland has all that, plus the talent for words and humor (not the cute-sy patoot-sy type) to boot.
