Can't find quote making fun of Yeats... help?
  • iconoplasticonoplast June 2012
    Someone (someone famous, I think) made fun of Yeats's "bee-loud glade" line from Innisfree... saying that while that sounds great, it would be a terrible place to picnic.

    I feel like it was Joyce, but can't find any reference to it.

    Anyone recognize the quote & remember who said it/where?

    No luck here, but when you find out do please let us know. Making fun of Yeats, indeed. The cheek.

    Sylvia Plath's bee poems? Google has just taught me her father was an entomologist. 

Howdy, Stranger!
