Undiscovered Robert Frost? OMFG!
The New York Times is reporting on a never-before-seen Robert Frost poem that will be published next week in the Virginia Quarterly Review. Better yet, The Boston Globe is endeavoring to be informative on the subject:
"War Thoughts at Home" first emerged in 1918 when Frost inscribed it in a copy of "North of Boston," his second collection. The poem was not seen again until a graduate student at the University of Virginia, Robert Stilling, recently spotted "War Thoughts" while looking through some Frost papers.
Nice job, graduate student. Now, if only your dissertation could be titled "Hey, Everybody. Look at This New Robert Frost Poem I Found," you'd be all done.
I'm sorry, that probably sounded more sarcastic than I meant it to be. Good job, graduate student.
