1.0 out of 5 stars better forgotten, November 6, 2011

This review is from: Kora and Ka With Mira-Mare (New Directions Bibelot) (Paperback)
Hilda Doolittle in my view was a great poet, if a minor American poet, but one that deserves a wide reading audience. Ethereal. Her prose works, novels, memoirs, and stories are very uneven and some are far better forgotten. For example, some of the post-live writings of Hemingway published to make money for Hemingway's family and his publisher would have been far better not published because fragments, unfinished, or in some cases mere exercises for what he wanted to publish. So it is with H.D.

I have not yet read his disguised fictional memoirs so I cannot asses them, ... yet. But these stories simply do not add to H.D.'s stature even if they do shed a little, too little, light on her as a writer.
