5.0 out of 5 stars The Poems of a Novelist, December 16, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
"A Stone, a Leaf, a Door" is a fascinating attempt to break the lyrical passages of Thomas Wolfe into poetic form. These short sketches are odd to say the least. Wolfe was a massive writer, in terms of his physical appearance, in terms of his ambition and scope and the simple fact that none of Wolfe's books were anything close to being short. While not all the passages fit the patterns of poetry, anyone looking to see why Wolfe was so highly regarded as a writer will find it here. Some of the poems are haunting and, best of all, there are no traces of the flat prose that Wolfe sometimes fell into. If the book does not convince you that Wolfe was a poet, it will remind you that, at his best, Thomas Wolfe could invoke lyrical passages of haunting beauty.
