Millay: Poems by Edna St. Vincent Millay
4.0
Millay’s brain is so large. The way she talks about love is unparalleled. Nobody else should even try to write sonnets anymore, she’s already done it but better.
Her strength really lies in her use of metre and rhyme, which further accentuates the beauty of anything she’s trying to say. It’s no wonder that she won a Pulitzer.
Overall this is an excellent collection of her poetry, but there were a loooooooot of nature poems which I just personally don’t vibe with, hence only 4 stars and not 5. I adored it, though, and Millay truly is That Bitch.
