| Notes | Synopsis : A Glass Half Full by Felix Dennis. === "Marooned in a sea of verse, I do not desire to ever reach land again. Perhaps I could not, even if I wished it. The verse itself is master now." Under this poetic authority, British publisher Felix Dennis bears up rather well. A bestseller in the U.K., Dennis composes his poetry in sonnets, sestinas, villanelles, and quatrains, but don't mistake his formalism for boring formality. He insists that today's poets should discard "the cloak of elitism and obscurity that has plagued us since the death of Auden and Dylan Thomas." |
