Chapter 196

David Lee was watching the news in front of his computer. When he saw an unread letter in his mailbox, he suddenly thought of something and immediately opened it to read.

"That's great. Kevin has finally finished the work. Let me have a good look. "

So, David Lee excitedly opened Kevin's all living beings and read it carefully.

At the top of the list are Shelley's when a lamp breaks and the philosophy of love, then Wordsworth's we are seven and Byron's I've seen you cry

David Lee first looked at the first poem in the collection of sentient beings, which is Shelley's when a lamp is broken.

Shelley is one of the most talented poets in England. There are too many classic works, so Kevin's poetry collection can't be ignored too much. After all, there is a saying that English poets lack many characteristics without Shelley.

(1)

When a lamp breaks,

Its light is extinguished by dust;

When the clouds in the sky disperse,

The brilliance of the rainbow disappears.

If the pipa is broken,

The beautiful music returns to silence;

If you finish talking,

The charm of love is soon forgotten.

(2)

Like music and light

It will coexist with Pipa and lamp,

The heart cannot sing,

If the essence has been depressed,

No songs, just mourning,

Like the wind blowing through a corner of the ruins,

Like a wailing wave,

The death knell for the dead sailor.

David Lee just read the first two verses of the poem, and he already felt Kevin's talent. He was so excited, he began to turn off the news page, and then concentrated on watching this "all living beings".

Because there are more than 200 poems in this poetry collection, David Lee has put off everything in recent days in order to finish it as soon as possible. After all, he has been deeply infatuated with the poems written by Kevin. He can't wait. He is like a hungry wolf for a long time. When he sees the prey in front of him, it's like the withering flower meets the rain and dew.

"It's beautiful, it's amazing."

A week later, David Lee finally finished the book of poems that Kevin sent him. At this time, he was completely relieved of his previous worries. Because this work is so mature and perfect, if you don't know Kevin, who would have thought it would be completed in about half a month?

"Kevin is really a literary genius. He can maintain such a high level in such a fast speed." David Lee couldn't help sighing to himself.

It is natural that such a wonderful work should be published earlier, so after reading all living beings, David Lee wrote a letter of recommendation to the Royal poetry press.

Royal poetry publishing house is a publishing house specializing in poetry. It is also the only publishing house in the UK that only publishes poetry. Because of this, their publishing house is also very strict with the publication of poetry. After all, they have to take the route of high-quality products, and those ordinary works are not taken into account at all.

Of course, the famous poetry critic David Lee recommended it, they will naturally attach importance to it. Therefore, after receiving the manuscript, Louis, the editor in charge of this part, immediately reviewed it.

Louis used to be a poet before he was an editor, and he was also famous at that time. Therefore, he is famous for his strict requirements on poetry.

But when Louis saw the collection of living beings, he had to exclaim: God, this is a work that can only be written by a gifted poet.

Lewis hasn't finished watching the sentient beings, but he has uttered such exclamations at least 10 times. Yes, as a poet and editor, he certainly knows what kind of poetry is good poetry, and he also knows what kind of poetry can be called perfect work.

He has seen a lot of poems in the past ten years, but he has never seen a collection of poems that can collect many perfect poems in one book. He felt incredible, and even deeply doubted whether the poet came from the world.

So Louis excitedly tweeted to himself, and Terry wrote, "oh my God, this is the most perfect collection of poems I've ever seen in my life.". Look forward to a great work in British poetry.

As soon as this tweet of Louis was sent out, some people began to question it. After all, this is not the first time that he has made such an exaggerated recommendation.

"If I remember correctly, Louis would say that every time he looked at a manuscript to be published, but what? I don't see the so-called great works. "

"Pull it down, Mr. Lewis. You've said that N times. But we haven't seen one of the greatest works in Britain. I think it's the same this time. So, we are desperate. "

"In fact, I always like Mr. Lewis's works, including his works - as long as he doesn't exaggerate to recommend the works of their publishing house."

"Excuse me, Mr. Lewis, when can you stop talking big? Can there still be talented poets? If not, I think those so-called great works are hard to see. "

After he tweeted, Lewis continued to review his manuscript before he could read the comments.

When Louis finished reading all the manuscripts, he immediately replied to David Lee. In his letter, he wrote: Dear Mr. David Lee, thank you for your recommendation. I'm so excited because it's the most perfect poetry collection I've ever seen. I think our publishing house is willing to make some contribution to such works. Would you please provide us with the author's contact information?

All this was expected by David Lee, so he was not surprised. After all, such works, he believes, have not been rejected by the publishing society.

After receiving a reply from the Royal poetry press, he told Kevin the news. After hearing this, Kevin also said that he was willing to talk about publishing with the other party. So David Lee was asked to reply to his contact information.

The Royal poetry publishing house, after receiving David Li's reply to the author's contact information, also knows that such excellent works can't wait too long. So, after a simple meeting, they decided that Louis would be in charge of contacting Kevin.

Lewis has seen the comments of people on twitter in the evening, and he believes that when Kevin's all creatures is published, it will improve people's views on him. So, he was very excited. For all this, he also has to have a good chat with Kevin, and then get the work done.
