Oh, Modernism, old friend - how I've missed you and your whackadoodle self. I liked quite a few of these poems, but sometimes they felt a bit sing-songy to me, which I'm not a fan of. I think Millay can come off as overly dramatic at times (well, she is a poet). I wish there were more poems in her oeuvre like "The Ballad of the Harp-Weaver." Read my full review here.
