Book Review: "American Poetry: A Very Short Introduction" by David Caplan
Help me, I'm stuck in the Very Short Introduction series and I can't get out! No really, this is becoming the same problem I had a few years ago when I got my limbs caught in the British Library Crime Classics series and ended up reading almost 100 of those books in perhaps a few months. Now, I've managed to find one on American Poetry, I have to say it is probably one of my favourites so far. I mean The Beats is good, but American Poetry has Phillis Wheatley and Emily Dickinson so it is, by default, better. The writer doesn't only display his knowledge of American Poetic History, he also provides some historical accounts of the people who wrote them, commenting on where they fit into the greater American landscape.

Blue is the actual color of the heart. Green is for healing the egoism. Very good poem!
Hey Cindy, I love your poem, simple but meaningful. I actually wrote an article about the colors of flowers and their meaning. Blue is one of the discussed colors. So if you want to you can check it out and let me know what you think about it. Sincerely, Matteo
