W. B. Yeats

- Yeats is worth living with slowly, a few poems at a night: you get the young dreamer of Innisfree, then watch him harden into the old man of Sailing to Byzantium, and the lines stick in your head whether you invite them or not. Skip it if you need plainspoken poetry.
- You’ll like its odd mix of Irish pub comedy and mystical seriousness, especially Martin Hearne, whose vision of a unicorn turns ordinary people toward something far stranger than politics or respectability. It’s talky and sometimes uneven, but its dreamlike theatricality stays with you after the curtain falls.
