Man, being a poet was so easy in the olden times. You wrote a few lines of rhyming verse, made a few biblical and mythological references, and they called you a genius and you got to fuck off and smoke opium for the rest of your life.

i don't read a lot of this format so i don't think i'd be able to fully understand this story if i didn't read a summary alongside it, and because of that i probably missed out on a lot of details. but even though i thought it was hard to understand at some parts, it felt easy to read and it didn't make me want to stop.
i thnk the story is about appreciating nature/life, the consequences of actions and how you can grow from them and teach others what you learnt. im glad i read it because of how different it is from what i usually read

After seeing albatrosses I wanted to research a bit more of the lore around them. Coleridge’s the ancient mariner captures the legend in a lyrical and moral way. Was fun to read. And fun that Gustave Dore was the illustrator! I love him.
