'The Open Sea' is a powerful collection of poems by Edgar Lee Masters that offers a rich variety of themes and styles. The first part presents gripping narratives of historical figures like Lincoln and Booth, as well as evocative scenes from daily life. The second part showcases introspective pieces, exploring the complexities of the human psyche and the nature of decision-making. The third part offers fresh interpretations of biblical stories and characters, juxtaposing them with contemporary concerns. Here's an excerpt from 'The Party', one of the poems featured in this book: «Our wishes not consulted whether / We chose to come, not even the hour / Some would have asked for fairer weather / Than on a day of sun and shower.»
