William Blake - The Marriage of Heaven and Hell

"Utter rubbish
I found that most of the poems have all the substance of candy floss, and are written by a man who was utterly sanctimonious and a true prat ... Perhaps Blake's most irritating trait is his true ignorance of the countryside that he writes of- for example is assertion that 'the distant huntsman winds his horn' in the SUMMER, and his syrupy drool in 'The Lamb.' Avoid Blake unless you absolutely have to."


"Weird."


"Rubbish.
These books are meant to help you, however my own ideas were better than those in the book. Would not reccomend."


"Probably the worst piece of poetry I've ever read. This book has too much hype. It was lame and boring. If anything similar to this were to come out today, it wouldn't even get published."

William Blake - Milton: A Poem

"Weird."


"I've never believed in the invisible enough to enjoy Blake."


"Blake is a dirty, dirty boy."


"Watched part of Red Dragon (and it just reminds me of how much I HATE william blake and his fucking drawings and his fucking religious mania) but I had to turn it off because --Hannibal-- fills my heart with a joy not unlike balloons filled with butterflies that pop and release delicious candies and little birdies and sunshine pops. So I ration the joy. I ration the sheer and utter love I have."

William Blake - Songs of Innocence and of Experience

"i'm having trouble relating to this book."


"This reminds me of dr sues but only for older audience hehe."


"william blake upon writing poems seems to portray black as something evil which is very much ridiculous to the black society.i know as a literature student that historically black wasnt something seen as evil but rather humility and beauty but the plaque that hit the whole world in the 15th or 14th century there about made the christian world at that time for their habit of racism name that illness 'blackdeath' diseases.it had a name but later changed to be this since then it has become an philosophical somewhat ideal to equate black to sin.'images of angel,jesus,god etc are all white but the opposite has being made to be ture in the minds of the human race hence black is relative to sin,devil(satan)and all satanic forces.i rest my comments for my book i ll write on this issue."
