I recently joined Leah Libresco Sargeant’s Tiny Book Club Substack after several months of lurking. Last month’s topic was the 19th century British Jesuit and poet Gerard Manley Hopkins, so let’s bring that conversation here too. Poetry is my preferred art form. There are at least a dozen poems that bring me to tears every time I read them. I love the language, I love the sound, I love the ideas, and I love the challenge of memorizing them.
