3.75
I'm going with 3.75 stars for this book because the bits I like are wonderful!
The middle part of the book contains a number of poems (and analysis of poems) which I simply did not enjoy. And while I know this says more about me than it does about the poems - I love poems that are spoken - but when I read them they feel dead and flat.
The remaining prose sections of the book are wonderful.
So, a book that I would recommend - but with parts that did not work for me.
