"The Unfaithful Wife" by Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill (poetry reading)

[EyeLean5280]

Nicely read. Also, a nice choice - provides a counter-balance to "The Young Husband."

A most willing suspension of disbelief. Don't you think? Splendid.

*chuckles* Just read it... I'll listen!

[FloresDeLaPrimavera]

Loved it!

What wonderful humor!

I wonder if this is inspired by Lorca's "The Faithless Wife"... hmm.

@36ss36 thats what i was wondering

[justdi123]

Blimey!!

tom you are reading better than ever. your renditions of female- penned poems, especially of this nature, are some of the most stirring. you read without sounding self conscious, rarely faltering and despite having a certain method of reading which a precious few happen to get vexed over, you often bring accents and theatrics to the poems (e.g. the one about bedlam and the kipling "tommy" one. my bad memory). i would swear that your once wonderful standard has gone up a notch or two.

Neat



[scifiwritir]

a might solipsistic, i think. The persona of the poem doesn't even consider that the guy might be married himself. Good poem.

lol it's a little funny hearing this poem read in a deep man's voice

[liz1060]

ah, well, whatever -- you know he is married, hey?

[SALVATl0N]

good one
