The narrative poem about Hiawatha, "he who makes rivers," in which he is challenged by the powers of nature that continually war against man.

A beautiful but flawed poem.

4 stelle

There is no getting around Longfellow's bias, but the beauty of his poetry and the sympathy of his heart makes this worth reading. It is a lovely retelling of several Native myths, and I look forward to exploring the real thing.

"For those who believe every human heart is human."
