Like so many others, I was introduced to W.H. Auden's work through the movie "Four Weddings And A Funeral". I promptly bought a book containing most of his poetry. What range he demonstrated!

I chose to read Donne in high school because everyone else picked the usual junk. For the first time I understood poetry, but it turned out to be pretty much the only time. Thirty, forty years later I am astounded at how much this poem formed my understanding of life, imperfection, and the First Commandment. Thank you for a beautiful reading.

Muchas gracias a todos y muchas felicidades a Eric Felipe-Barkin. Ha sido una serie exquisita
A great actor reading one of the greatest poems ever written. I loved you in :"A room with a view" and in : "Amadeus" and in : "4 weddings..." Little did I know that I'd see you reading the poem that was recited at your character's funeral. May you live in health till 120!
