Eavan Boland ( Love ) Flashcards

“A life they had shared and lost “
Parallels between the life once lived and the mundane of the modern time shown in parallels to the Ancient Greek Time of history that engages a reader
“Dark falls on this mid - western town where we once lived when myths comided “
Nostalgic of the past she comes to accept that the times have changed and instead is grateful that those times did exist
“I am your wife it was years ago our child was healed we love each other still “
Symbolic imagery of love reflecting the strength within her relationships depicts love in human form in my opinion giving me the image of flesh she also refers to her husband as a hero and I think the evocative idea that love is most strong when it can be identified through a person is prelevant through eavans imagery
“Love had the feather and muscle of wings “
