I love poetry. It is a major facet of my life. I love to read poetry from various eras of humanity to see how the language was back then, and to see what they felt important enough to put into verse. That being said, Victorian language is often difficult to understand and the subject matter is often unrelatable to me as a woman in the 21st century. I'm happy I read the book, but I'm also happy to be done with it. It was a bit of a chore to decipher at times, but poetical history is important. This was a learning experience, for sure.
