His language is here impacted, with the reader needing to be alert to follow the twists and turns of the narrative. Sordello is an important work, and crucial in Browning's development. It is also an astonishing work to come from the pen of a 28-year-old, and one can see why Ezra Pound treated it so seriously when he was about to embark upon The Cantos.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Width: 12mmItem Weight: 312gAuthor: Browning, RobertGenre: Poetry & DramaRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
