Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Some Contemporary Poets (1920) It is related of one of our younger poets that he declared he would not publish a First Book until he knew sixteen critics personally, and had dined with each. It is told of another that he prophesied his books would not begin to sell until he had obtained posts for at least a dozen of his friends on the reviewing staffs of prominent newspapers. It has been rumoured that a third was able to dispose of an edition of two thousand copies of his own book solely by means of his own personal recommendation. Verse-writing in the year 1920 is a professional occupation. Young men and women of education enjoy the practice of making clever rhymes or noting down their own feelings in loose sentences, vaguely termed "free verse." The periodicals and newspapers make a large demand for these exercises in rhyme and rhythm: it is not difficult to be accepted.
