    I wouldnt touch Plaths poetry with a five foot pole if I can get away with it. Only Eliots would be as hard to write about. His poetry is interesting just far too deep and complicated for LC tbh. If he was guaranteed hed be good but hes not so......

    i kinda agree... everyone will be doing Plath, but god dammit! i get her poetry.. so if she comes up, **** it! hahaha

    Frost is a handy one too, but he's hard to write a 4page essay on. same with Kavanagh - all his poems have the same frikin themes in them!

    ..why must we have SO much to learn for English! :mad:

    3 Comparitives
    6 Poets @ 6 Poems each
    A Play - Mabeth, where we need to know all the main charachters, with all the MILLIONS of Themes that run though everything



    THEN..

    Do a comprehension, an Essay and a Creative Writing Essay thing that must be about 4 pages long

    Yea when it came down to it, i have just "covered" Kavanagh, Plath and Frost. If Plath and Frost come up i will do Frost as everyone will be doing Plath. I love Frost's poetry and it is probably my favourite, 'Out Out' is quite the poem and i know Aquainted with the Night perfectly.

    I just hope everyone starts thinking "ah feck it, everyone's doing Plath, I'm gonna do something different". Let us Plath-understanders be in the minority then!
