West-Running Brook

By Robert Frost
West-Running Brook by Robert Frost digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The great American poet’s 1928 collection evoking rural life in his native New England.

This collection includes thirty-nine poems divided into six sections. The title poem depicts a married couple contemplating a stream which runs counter to the direction of others in the area. This stream develops into a metaphor through which Frost considers the nature of relationships, as well as the mysteries of nature itself.

Other featured poems include the emotionally resonant “Acquainted with the Night,” and “The Bear,” in which the freedom and power of a wild bear is contrasted with the lot of modern man.
