Torrent description

Enter DescriptionAn authoritative reading of eight poems by Vincent Price-in turn thoughtful, declamatory or romantic, and with scarcely a hint of his melodramatic screen persona.

The highlight is a complete reading of Adonais, written upon hearing of the death in Rome of John Keats and one of Shelley's three or four major poems.

As Shelley himself wrote "I have dipped my pen in consuming fire to chastise his destroyers;otherwise the tone of the poem is solemn and exalted".

In the poem there is both a celebration of the indestructible life of the creative spirit and a death drive towards human consummation, intense emotion and a high poetic formality,fire and moisture, heat and cold, flowers and stars, light and darkness and time and eterniy.

The scenario is the dead poet being greeted by a solemn visitation of his peers. After a succession of ghostly intensities the starlike radiance of Adonais/Keats is perceived in its changeless essence-even the spreading dawn light does not quench his immortal spirit.
