The Black Riders and Other Lines (Version 2)
Gelesen von Chuck Williamson
Stephen Crane
(3,875 Sterne; 4 Bewertungen)
Written in a purgative frenzy of pure imagination (“They came, and I wrote them, that’s all”), Stephen Crane’s The Black Riders and Other Lines is a strange, enigmatic, and sparsely-written collection of free verse that bristles with Old Testament fury, seethes with cosmic cynicism, and touches on themes of lost faith and existential terror.

very good reading
False Grind
(3,5 Sterne)
I really like the voice and tone of the reader in this collection of Stephen Crane's poetry: slightly-angsty, indignant, a quiet rage brewing underneath a defiant, slow delivery -- oddly appropriate for these poems.
