that Crane loves the word "urchin".
the ending to "The Awakening" is very powerful.
3/4 of the way through Chopin's novella and it's reminding me of a couple Virginia Woolf pieces...
only read the first part of "Daisy" but does anyone else see James' addressing the differences between tradition and progress?
Whitman has a partially Taoist approach in how he sees things in this poem.
sees loose comparisons to "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" in Whitman's poem (pg 57). Is the San Francisco a ghost that haunts him?
sees shades of Wordsworth and Shelley in Whitman's poem...
noticing the references to Wolverines, Hoosiers, Badgers and Buckeyes in Whitman's poem. Was he also a founder of the Big Ten? lol
reading biographical info on Whitman.
finally on Plurk after a looooong first day of senior year!
