amkhasawneh 's review for:
The Ode Less Travelled: A guide to writing poetry
by Stephen Fry
It's a very well-written work, of course, and a great way to learn prosody. But as is always the case with Fry's writing (and speech), I tend to lose track when I'm reading one of those wordy sentences he's so wont to use, and a dictionary close at hand is indispensable.
It took me a while to read this book, not because it's boring, but because it has these Poetry Exercises that take time--that are supposed to take time. At the end, I found myself skipping those because I felt the book was taking more than its due.
