The Back Chamber




I didnt enjoy this book as well as other Donald Hall books like 'Unpacking the boxes'.
'Apples peaches' poem is the authors reflection on the time left to him.
'What we did', 'Searching','The Gardener', 'The Offspring','Freezes and Junes' - all meditations on the authors wife, posthumous birthday celebration like.
'Rics progress' is a long poem with a movie story and follows the life of characters to the fag end of it.
'Envy'- author envies his pet's granted euthanasia.
'Maples'- leaves the reader with a strong image of the solitary landscape.
