Silhouettes
Arthur Symons
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
This is a collection of verses by British poet, critic and magazine editor Arthur Symons, which, as some reviewers assure us, was "'unwholesome," because, he said, they had "a faint smell of Patchouli about them."' Modern readers may value the poetry in this volume differently. - Summary by Carolin (1 hr 24 min)
