I have the same little Penguin book of Emily Bronte's poetry, I love 'The Old Stoic', one of the very few poems I have committed to heart.

That's cool! I'm really bad at learning poems by heart. The Old Stoic would be a good one to have, though.

Hey, I missed this one! (I haven’t been watching book hauls or shelf tours lately.) I have a video scheduled for Monday about Charlotte Smith - she’s great!

@aaronfacer 4 месяца назад

Oh great! I'll be looking forward to it.

So many books and so little time. The problem with looking at other peoples book tube channels is the tbr just gets bigger! Happy reading.

@aaronfacer 4 месяца назад

Absolutely! BookTube can be very dangerous in that respect!

I simply must find a copy of The Lives of the Poets! It’s sounds so appealing. I also enjoyed those Emily Brontë poems. There is always such a fierceness to her poetry. I love her poem starting with the lines “Often rebuked, yet always back returning”. And that Umberto Eco book seems utterly fascinating. So many cool ideas. This was such an awesome video. Thanks Aaron!

Thank you, Joshua! Often Rebuked, Yet Always Back Returning is one of my favourites of hers too. I think Lives of the Poets is right up your street. It's definitely worth the page count!
