Break, Blow, Burn: Camille Paglia Reads Forty-Three of the World's Best Poems by Camille Paglia

4.0

Paglia, in her introduction, states that she is crafting these interpretations, these readings, for the everyman. That she seeks to avoid pretense. I think she fails there, and I would with her, even scrap about some of her interpretations of Dickinson. But many of her interpretations ring true, and gripe though I may about her overly academic style, I really enjoyed some of the alternate views she's given me on classic works as well as modern ones.
