Although not poetry his words are razor sharp and crystalline in its meaning many of the great English speaking writers of his t propertius If one reads this work with the same intensity that one reads or should read his verse he may be surprised that the man int his brief autobiographical work is far more complex than even his poetry leads us to believe. He decidedly was possessed by a unique muse.Although not poetry his words are razor sharp and crystalline in its meaning many of the great English speaking writers of his time wrote with a lapidary style that left no room for misinterpretation e.g. John Henry Cardinal Newman.Mr. Yeats has invited you into his soul for a brief glimpse, it is well worth the time spent on it, particularly for the Yeats aficionado.. Portrait of the artist as a young man Classics Lover This is Yates's autobiography, or rather a part of it -- covering mostly his youth and coming of age, not his childhood. This book is very much worth reading, not only because of Yeat's penetrating analysis of the artistic world, but above all due to the people he met. His poetic mentor was Hennely, of "Invictus" fame, of which he gives an amazing pen-portrait; he met almost daily numerous important artists (especially painters) and writers, such as Huxley and Oscar Wilde, Beardsley and Shaw, and so on.Much of the book is naturally his poetics and, above all, his desire to create genuine Irish poetry - not the "green cover with a lyre" . the Trembling Of The Veil just me Exactly what I wanted and expected. I enjoy the masters of literature. It is wonderful to have these books available on Kindle. I have them on pdf format. However I don't have pdf on my phone. I use all of my devices for reading books. I love being able to have both my Kindle and my phone loaded with books and ready to go where ever I go.
