This Is My Beloved

Summary: Boy gets girl, boy loses girl on a cosmic scale
Review: There are two striking characteristics in the relationship between Lillian and the author... first is the overwhelming commitment to Lillian (images, many of sexual nature, described with intense, vivid intimacy) and, second, the abject destruction of the author as the long affair with Lillian disintegrates bit by bit, complete with a failed attempt at reconciliation...

Summary: It is my favorite collection of poetry.
Review: This book is a sensual look of how a man sees a women when he loves her. I recomend this to all my fiends and feel it is some of the best poetry I have ever read and as a creative writing major I have read quite a few pieces of poetry.

Summary: UNFORGETTABLE
Review: This book took my breath away-
I gave it to my fiancee as a birthday gift in August 2000-
he carried it with him- everywhere even on the plane-on business trips to Europe-he said that until he fell in love-he would have never understood it-but if you are madly in love-it is so moving it is almost hurtful.
Sometimes it is so moving- he had to stop reading-one just read a few pages at a time.
He died suddenly on February 18, 2000-
and this has great meaning for me.

Summary: THE BEST
Review: This book was first given to me by Truman Capote, through my mother as a wedding gift. I was a young man then but very influenced by great writings. FOr over twenty five years I have read this book and each time some new and wonderful expression captures me like an "...onset of madness..."

Summary: Love's Soul Expression
Review: This Is My Beloved IS my favorite book of poetry. Walter expresses love so completely. The true depth of love when it is real, honest and free. I absolutely love this book. I feel his words. This book has touched my heart. I've read it a few times and it can still bring tears to my eyes and evoke passion within me. I want to be loved in such a way. So deeply. I highly recommend it....especially to all hopeless romantics.
