5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the top five books in modern poetry,
By norman (Boca Raton, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Silence in the Snowy Fields: Poems (Wesleyan Poetry Series) (Paperback)
This first book by Robert Bly is definitely a classic. It is certainly one of the best books in modern poetry--a landmark! Along with James Wright's The Branch Will Not Break, this book defined a generation of poets in the late 50's that decided poetry had become too dull and scholarly. These poems are alive and rich in vivid imagination. You will fall in love with each poem and read and re-read this collection over and over again.

Bly captures the intricate love, hidden between the lines.,

This review is from: Silence in the Snowy Fields: Poems (Wesleyan Poetry Program) (Hardcover)
An intellectual with deep insight into human nature, and tremendous focus with the written word; this is one of Mr. Bly's most sublime collections of poetry. He has an uncanny ability to look deep into human existence and point with an awe-struck finger to the divine. His poignancy with the natural world rolls off the tounge and into deep into the mind touching a quieter place. The poems will leave you spellbound.
