message 51: by Erin (new) - rated it 4 stars

Erin | 39 comments I loved and savoured this book, and it made me remember all the things I love about poetry. I generally read this at the rate of one or two per night, which for me was a good pace to appreciate them. I was also interested at the number of poems by 'regular' soldiers and would love to dig up a book on the way poetry was such an accessible and normal way of self-expression in this era - happy to take recommendations, and will also do some digging about and report back.
