I picked this book up on a free rack recently and discovered an unexpected treasure.
Poetry has been sadly underrated in our society, but as Browning makes clear - getting at the "truth of things" is a mystical, spiritual experience that not only forms us but grows us from the inside out.
Great things in life can come in plain packages available on a free rack.

I never expected this book to be so fascinating. Herford really nails down the literary elements in the book, demonstrating an extraordinary sensitivity to poetry in general and Robert Browning's work specifically. Lots of food for thought as I consider the personal lenses we all use to express our version of the world we live in.
