Literature is a world of words and wonder, able to take us on almost unimaginable journeys from the wild and fantastic to the grind and minutiae of life. An author’s ideas are his building blocks, his architecture of the mind, building a structure on which all else will rest; the narrative, the characters, the words - those few words that begin the adventure. In this series we look at some of our leading classic authors across two genres: the short story and the poem. In this modern world there is an insatiable need to categorise and pigeon-hole everyone and everything. But ideas, these grains and saplings of the brain, need to roam, to explore and find their perfect literary use vehicle. Our authors are masters of many literary forms, perhaps known for one but themselves favouring another. Story. Poems. Story. Within these boundaries come all manner of invention and cast of characters. And, of course, each author has their own way of revealing their own chapter and verse. 1 - Chapter & Verse - Charlotte Mew - An Introduction 2 - Some Ways of Love by Charlotte Mew 3 - Fin de Fete by Charlotte Mew 4 - The Fete by Charlotte Mew 5 - In the Fields by Charlotte Mew 6 - Moorland Night by Charlotte Mew 7 - The Farmer's Bride by Charlotte Mew 8 - The Forest Road by Charlotte Mew 9 - On the Road to the Sea by Charlotte Mew 10 - Sea Love by Charlotte Mew 11 - Madeline in Church by Charlotte Mew 12 - Ken by Charlotte Mew 13 - The Centoaph by Charlotte Mew 14 - In Nunhead Cemetery by Charlotte Mew 15 - Passed by Charlotte MewMostra libro
