Heh, I never even made it through one canto. The only Pound I was actually required to read was stuff from Blast, which is trippy and weird, but not outright awful.
Need to read more Auden, more HD, more of everyone else from that era.
PssssstMillayMillayMillayMillay... (Aside from Eavan Boland, on whom I wrote my thesis, Millay's my favorite poet ever.)
He probably has, and I'm faintly jealous of that. I need to put in the effort to read more poetry.
Just be sure to get an edition with very good footnotes...I had a good edition for class, and I still had to read the SparkNotes summary before each canto so that I could figure out what it was supposed to be about, and then interpret according to that.
Hell, poor actors. All that latex, hot lights, and then couch fabric on top of it all. :(
Lord, yes. The EarthForce uniforms didn't look too cool either, but at least they didn't have latex as well. I can't even imagine how Katsulas and the Narn actors survived. Perhaps there was really excellent air conditioning in the warehouse they filmed in.
