NEW POETRY
The Asters in Joshua Alan Sturgill
“Raven Steals the Salmon” by Benjamin Rozonoyer
The Personal Element in Criticism: The bringing in of the personal element into criticism is always irritating. Some people say that Shelley wrote such beautiful poetry that he could treat his wife as he pleased; other people say that Shelley was such a bad man that they won’t read his poetry. Each point of view is purely impertinent; if Shelley had been a Borgia I should still praise his verse; and the fact that a man possesses genius gives him no license to behave like a cad and a blackguard.
