Nye sayer
Robert Nye reviews professor of poetry Helen Vendler’s new book Coming of Age as a Poet:
“I think it was Ezra Pound who once defined a lecturer as a person who is paid to talk for an hour about something that could be said in five minutes. Helen Vendler is a lecturer.”
The review doesn’t need to be any longer does it? But Mr Nye has a 500 word review to write!
