Auden's Grip & Large Canon

This isn't even slightly medieval, but one of my colleagues and I had a long Beavis-and-Butthead laugh about this review on Auden's Collected Poems:
"Auden, who gripped me in my teens, has a large canon..."

What do you think? Intentional double-entendre or not?

  2. Interesting exploration of Auden’s text and context. I enjoyed reading your analysis and insights. I also checked cbtf turbo 247 and found it simple to navigate.
