A very riveting read for anyone interested in the Romantics and their lives. I've read it in its entirety but it is also possible to read about only the myths you are curious about.
Real rating: 2.5
I feel like I should have appreciated this collection more but I just couldn't. I loved some of the poems, and most of the imagery but I made the mistake of reading them in a row and poem after poem the feeling that you didn't understand what you read gets to you. Still, it feels new for its time, not the prose poems itself but the part dream part nightmare like imagery.
Perhaps I would have enjoyed this concise collection if I had a more comprehensive knowledge of Greek mythology and history, but still it was at some parts enjoyable, some parts boring depending on the poet.
