Edward Lear, The Owl and the Pussy-cat
From Lloyd Schwartz’s Introduction: ‘In Lear’s best-loved poem, “The Owl and the Pussy-cat,” the logic underlying the fantasy is an emotional trueness.’
This regular column in the online version of the Atlantic Monthly presents an introduction to a poem with readings in RealAudio; in this case the readers are Gail Mazur, Lloyd Schwartz, and Richard Wilbur.
