Reviews


(4 stars)

Usually I'm quite stingy on giving stars, so this is actually pretty good. -- Especially the performance (for I believe poems to be performed) by Ezwa. If all the recordings were that emotive this would get five stars, despite my natural aversion to "love poesy." Textually it seems simple, but that never bothered me. (No points off for that.)

Lovely Poem


(5 stars)

A lovely, thought proving poem. Each of the 11 chapters is the same poem, but read by a different narrator. The first two chapters that I listened to were both well narrated.

Wonderful


(4.5 stars)

Same all of the poems should be read by EZWA!!!❤️❤️ Very nicely done!! Thanks Everyone 😍

I was astonished that the narrator killed another guy courting Lily of the West and was able to avoid prison (thanks to her while he says that she betrayed him [I doubt it]). The song sung made it better.
