The House of Orchids and Other Poems

Gelesen von Sonia

(5 Sterne; 1 Bewertungen)

This is a 1911 volume of poems by California poet George Sterling. Sterling was a particularly celebrated poet during his life time in California, though his fame remained local and hardly spread to the other shore of the United States, let alone to Europe. There were good reasons for this fame, however, as is demonstrated by this volume of particularly beautiful and evocative poetry. - Summary by Carolin (1 hr 51 min)
