I am not a poet, but I got upset today, at work, and this is the only way I can safely let it out right now.

I Hate.
I hate.
I hate.
Feeling sad
Feeling stupid
Wanting to do for myself
HATING that I am…
Feeling like I can’t vent
Having nowhere I can go
And talk
SAFELY- without reproach
Without someone answering
Always having a solution.
Is it right for me to just want
To feel-Without having to fix?
What is “right”?
I don’t want to hate at all
I just want to help
Not chastised for what I haven’t done.
I need to vent, I hurt inside.

This question is targeted at people who read both Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte and Wide Sargasso Sea ( tells the story of the mad woman locked up at Thornfield) by Jean Rhys.

The two books have a different portrayal of Mr. Rochester. I only read the back of Wide Sargasso sea and it seemed to me that the Mr. Rochester was made to be a villian in this books.

So I have to ask someone who read both books, if he is a villian or a victim. Tell me in what aspects are we to sypathize with him and what ways is his charachter tragically flawed in both of the novels.

Futher do you think it is fiar to write a book about someone else's Character and change the readers originall perception of the Character. Do you see this as feeding off of someone else's work or is it a genius as it tells the two parts of the story.

I have written two novels since my early retirement. It has been a godsend, having moved to a new country. But I've hit a wall recently, and am hoping for some assistance or inspiration here....

My style seems to be intense character development, and lots of twists and turns in the plot. I'd love some ideas...anyone have any great plotline ideas? Your help would be greatly appreciated...

Hey, admit it; it is useful to keep something to read in the bathroom near the "throne." I have "Books and Reading: A Book of Quotations," edited by Bill Bradfield for Dover Thrift Editions.

i need to catch up on reading.

2007-01-23 00:10:21 · 4 answers · asked by Anonymous

I read it, once, a long time ago, and now I can't remember the poet's name, the title of the poem or where I first read it. All I can remember, I will list here. I have searched the Internet to no avail, but maybe someone else will have more success.

It is about the poet & an English teacher, who is so obsessed with the rules of language (specificly "the container for the thing contained") that she can't see the real beauty in literature. They walk through fantastical literary landscapes and the poet tries to draw the teacher's attention to these wonders, but all she does is peer around with her binoculars, searching for a "container for the thing contained", and being thoroughly delighted when she catches a glimpse of one. Eventually, the poet gives up.

I think that Sherwood Forest is mentioned, possibly also the Forest of Arden. I would love to get hold of a copy of this poem, can anyone help me?

A yahoo answers compares this poet to keats. What do you think
This answer states
commenting upon "la belle dames sans merci"
To each his own! I think I'll stay with Keats. His "elfin grot" is the height of the depths. Dean, from his prose works, appears to be a master of meaninglessness. His "disco underground" may be the depths at its height. A story of OOOOOOOOO!

Something light-hearted. I'd prefer something closer to Nick Hornby than Dan Brown.

It's the one where the hunter sleeps with the man's wife after the man chickens out on one of their hunting expeditions. After that he redeems himself and his wife winds up shooting him (accidentally) and killing him.
