Sinopsis

Arthur Hugh Clough's 'The Bothie of Tober-Na-Vuolich' is a narrative poem that tells the story of a group of students who spend a summer at a remote Scottish inn, exploring themes of youth, love, and social class. Written in blank verse, the poem reflects the author's interest in the Romantic movement and his desire to address contemporary social issues through literature. Clough's use of vivid imagery and introspective language adds depth to the narrative, creating a thought-provoking reading experience for the audience. The Bothie of Tober-Na-Vuolich stands as a significant work in Victorian poetry, drawing on the traditions of the past while also pushing the boundaries of poetic form and content.

Looking back is often like looking in a mirror, all the imperfections are obvious. This is the journey of how two women look back saw their past reflections and use them to do good. How they managed to smooth out the path ahead. How they reconcile themselves with who they are and who they will be. Every path has a crossroad and finding the peace to be satisfied with the choices is part of every journey.

Just as he upended the conventions of the novel with On the Road, Jack Kerouac revolutionized American poetry in this ingenious collection Bringing together selections from literary journals and his private notebooks, Jack Kerouac’s Scattered Poems exemplifies the Beat Generation icon’s innovative approach to language. Kerouac’s poems, populated by hitchhikers, Chinese grocers, Buddhist saints, and cultural figures from Rimbaud to Harpo Marx, evoke the primal and the sublime, the everyday and the metaphysical. Scattered Poems, which includes the playfully instructive “How to Meditate,” the sensory “San Francisco Blues,” and an ode to Kerouac’s fellow Beat Allen Ginsberg, is rich in striking images and strident urgency. Kerouac’s widespread influences feel new and fresh in these poems, which echo the rhythm of improvisational jazz music, and the centuries-old structure of Japanese haiku. In rebelling against the dry rules and literary pretentiousness he perceived in early twentieth-century poetry, Kerouac pioneered a poetic style informed by oral tradition, driven by concrete language with neither embellishment nor abstraction, and expressed through spontaneous, uncensored writing.
