This chapter delves into the poetry of Natalie Clifford Barney and Humphrey Davy, comparing the impact of Barney's work in French versus English and discussing the length and complexity of Davy's poems. The hosts also touch on Davy's potential substance use and how it may have influenced his writing.
Tracy and Holly discuss Sir Humphry Davy's less than spectacular poems, Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein," and the end of Davy's career and life.
