The Rime of the Ancient Mariner
ByPublisher Description
The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner is a hauntingly beautiful work, acclaimed both for the lyrical quality of its language and for the ghostly atmosphere it evokes. Samuel Taylor Coleridge's masterpiece related the tale of a sailor who shoots a lucky albatross and is condemned to wander the sea in search of redemption, burdened with guilt over his deed and the resulting deaths of his shipmates.

3.5
“I'm trying to read more poetry this year, and I had a great time dwelling in Coleridge's metrical and descriptive creativity. As far as the narrative goes it's clearly also fascinating, though I can't quite tell yet whether it'll have more to give on that front on second reading, since thematically speaking it didn't strike me as particularly complex. But with that said, there's obviously no way to know what you've missed until you go back and try it again... so glad I finally got around to this one anyhow, and I'll definitely look forward to returning to it.”
“I pass, like night, from land to land”
