Robert Frost 1

from Reading and Writing · host Michael Lavers

Esther, Alexander and I chat about three of our favorite Frost poems. We examine what specifically makes them so beautiful, including: rhythm and meter, sonic texture, the power of monosyllables, universality in poetry, aphoristic wisdom, the tension between form and content, Frost's darker side, dialectical tensions in poetry, tone, and much more.
