Paralyzed by poetry? Clueless about the classics? Mystified by muses? Then this compilation is just the book for you. Written with a light touch in accessible English, it explores a variety of themes that have concerned all of us at one time or another. If you have ever been out of your depth at a conference, lost at a job fair, or wondered why you should keep your powder dry, then you will immediately relate to the verses inside.
Encounter Robert Frost in the woods of New England, soar with Shelley's nightingale, embolden Keats' knight, and find out what really happened to the monster Grendel. Meet two of the Muses, members of that classical group that have stirred the artistic endeavors of poets, musicians, and actors for centuries. Immortal they may be, but here they are shown to have very human emotions and enthusiasms.
Erato, Muse of lyrical and erotic poetry, simply cannot take no for an answer; her warrior sister, Calliope, is reduced to pleading for another epic to be written. In this audiobook, you will find philosophy, romance, and a love of nature as well as disturbing thoughts regarding the future of our planet. Hopefully most of the poems will raise a smile; some may linger in the mind, and others provide food for further reflection. Enjoy!
