This was one of those reads where, two hours into the reading, I suddenly looked up and blinked and realized I'd been in the same frozen position for an hour and someone had been trying to get my attention for the last 20 minutes. Jesus was this good. I'm still blown away by it this morning.
This is the first record of my reading that I have not posted on this website in 6 and a half years.I did that recently and it feels so weird.
- Eliot is awesome. This is my favourite of his books, I think.
Moira! Moira! Yaaaaay! Are you back? Are you at booklikes? Nice to see you either way!
I recently read a collection of his best poems and my reaction was more or less like yours, Kelly.
Stunned, you mean? Or the overwhelmed endless talking I couldn't stop myself from doing in the review? :) This is still the only work of his I've read. This was amazing on such a visceral level I'm afraid to read anything else because I feel like I would only be disappointed.
