From sonnet to sonnet, Elizabeth Barrett Browning confronts her loneliness, her sense of unworthiness, her fears of love’s vanishing, and slowly unfolds faith, gratitude, and the depth, strength, and fierceness of her love. Although I’m not much of a poetry reader, I found myself caught up in the language and rhythms and subject of this slim little volume. I’m certain I didn’t drink the poetry to the dregs, so to speak, in just my one, leisurely read, but I enjoyed myself enough that I believe I’ll want to revisit it someday. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Sonnets from the Portuguese is the collection of love poems written by Elizabeth Barrett Browning in the time leading up to her marriage to Robert Browning. Elizabeth hesitated in publishing the poems, as they were so personally revealing, but her husband persuaded her of their high worth. She decided to pass them off as translations, in order to obscure her authorship, and so the title of the collection came about. They were, and remain, immensely popular.
