i WAS going to one-up you with another ee cummings poem. But my ee cummings book is NOWHERE TO BE FUCKING FOUND!!! I'm kinda dissapointed.
I prob just left it at home.
anyways...
Plath is a psycho. anyone who makes her family cookies then sticks her head in the oven is a wacko. I try not to read much of her, too depressing.
Hem isn't as depressing in the way Plath has SHEER depression. Hem is more of a sublter type of angst-ridden depression. Any war vet has that type of depression.
But if you want to talk about war trauma, ee cummings has them all beat.
I'm actually a fan of Hemingway and think him more clever then fucked up. Now John Irving is a fucked up man (probably cause he went to my school). Cider House rules so far has pleasantly dealt with the topics of: 1. How to abort a fetus 2. How an innocent doctor caught ghonorrea from a whore while her daughter watched 3. A picture of a woman performing fellatio on a horse 4. A crippling drug addiction to ether 5. Orphans
