[.ca] Prufrock And Other Observations (ISBN 1599868520)

I can't believe no one's reviewed this...:
I hope that no one's reviewed this because they just didn't think to, and not because they've never read it, because that would make me sad. The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock is an ode to being on the outside, looking in, and not being sure about what you see there. Prufrock (the narrator of the poem) thinks himself a fool, a prince, a messenger, he contemplates an overwhelming question, he dares to eat a peach, and part his hair from behind, and even when he grows old (and wears the ends of his trousers rolled), he does this all alone. though the poem opens with an invitation, there is little else in the piece that leads the reader to believe that Prufrock is happy for our company, or even aware of it at all.
