5.0 out of 5 stars Robin Hyde's _Nadath_: Simply Amazing, June 2, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Book of Nadath (Paperback)
Robin Hyde's _The Book of Nadath_ is a striking poetic work. Her use of imagery is often on par with that of later, Pullitzer prize-winning poet Sylvia Plath, yet her work as a whole is not nearly as tortured; one of the most captivating aspects of _Nadath_ is its concurrently beautiful and bleak awareness of place and time, often with perceptable reference to the world war (the poem was written around 1937). The sophistication and boldness of _Nadath_ sets Hyde apart from many better-known female poets of the 1930s and ensures that interest in her poetry will grow, not only among scholars, but among casual lovers of poetry as well. If you are looking to branch out and discover something new and beautiful, whether to inspire and direct your own writing, or to expose your mind to unique perspectives, _The Book of Nadath_ may be just what you need.
