A Dome of Many-Coloured Glass


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(4 stars; 1 reviews)

This is a collection of lyrical poems, sonnets and verses for children by Amy Lowell.

"For quaint pictorial exactitude and bizarrerie of color these poems remind one of Flemish masters and Dutch tulip gardens; again, they are fine and fantastic, like Venetian glass; and they are all curiously flooded with the moonlight of dreams. . . . Miss Lowell has a remarkable gift of what one might call the dramatic-decorative. Her decorative imagery is intensely dramatic, and her dramatic pictures are in themselves vivid and fantastic decorations." (Richard Le Gallienne, 'New York Times Book Review', 1916) (2 hr 0 min)
