It also deals with more mature love and feelings engendered by both finding and losing a mature love. There are three different loves addressed in the love poems. The Elusive Hold also examines the many moods of spiritual love and awareness, of finding and keeping a love that cannot be lost. Human love is a prototype for divine love and the feelings involved in human love can merge into divine love. Mr. Odegaard has been inspired by poets of British and American romantic poetry: Woodsworth and Coleridge, Byron, Keats and Shelly. He has also sought inspiration in Holderlin, Rilke, Hopkins, Gray, Mandelstam and Trakl. He also must include Hawthorne, Melville and Hart Crane.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trafford Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47892052476055,"sku":"9781412083560","price":1700.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781412083560.webp?v=1781185587","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-elusive-hold-and-other-poems-9781412083560","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
