7:24 🤣Freda speaks so beautifully and shows such sensitivity in her writing. She describes George and his events in ways that only someone who understands animals can

Thankfully Frieda is not a mimic of her parents or of anyone else. She is her own being. As is the magpie.

Ho letto le sue poesie. Non capisco come fanno a paragonare la sua poetica allo stile di Sylvia Plath , o peggio ancora ad Emily Dickinson Ho letto le sue poesie . E per definirle tale ci vuole coraggio Così si uccide la poesia Paragonare questo alla poesia della Dickinson? Queste sono filastrocche per bambini prima di dormire È famosa solo grazie al cognome. Lo sanno anche i sassi
