Note

Well, you've done a really good job writing this up. The next steps are clear: write up a section for those reviews, citing them and getting specific. Also, the structure of the collection isn't clear to me: this is a set of poems? With a narrative line from start to finish? No sub-sections? And what about form, length, etc. of the poems? And, of course, what about rapture? Dr Aaij (talk) 02:10, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review from a Classmate

The lead has good information but I would suggest mentioning the T.S Eliot Prize in the beginning of the paragraph, not the end. Placing it at the end just seems like you are saying “oh yea and there’s also this thing that isn’t that important,” but it is the whole reason the poem is notable and deserves the article. The synopsis of the article is well-written and contains good detail. In the “Themes” section I would add in some information about some of the metaphors used and the different writing techniques/styles used. I would also add another heading for critiques/reviews on the book and find a notable source or two and write a couple sentences about the public’s reception of the poetry collection. Doing those suggestions should give your article the balance in content it needs. Other than that, your references/sources look good. GAJH123 (talk) 17:05, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
