i ordered it already, so if no one responds i'll at least make a thread in a month

I've got s copy but haven't done a thorough enough read to compare to the Cantos. If I remember correctly it was less dense.

cool, i've read small passages online and i got interested when it was called the link between Pound and later poets.

I read through the first poem after I saw your post...it's not a dense work. Has some themes of the cantos with the whole hero sojourn shtick. Reminds me of a light modern Walt Whitman. Reaching for the epic. Just first impressions.

cool, I'm trying to figure out the 'epic' genre and its difference from the 'long poem' and how that could be reconciled, so I've been looking for Epics, and Long Poems that I haven't read before. I got this one and 'A' coming to me now.

Good luck -- come back and start a thread when you get a chance. I'd enjoy hearing your thoughts...
