What Adam Walker - Close Reading Poetry makes

Topics literature, poetry, romanticism, literary-analysis, close-reading

Making the study of literature available to readers beyond the paywalls of the university. After earning my PhD in English and American Literatures from Harvard University in 2024, I founded Versed Community, where I help readers find meaning and beauty in works of great literature. On this channel, I offer literary lectures without midroll ads (resisting the machine yet limiting my revenue). If you would like to financially support my work, you can join my live courses, book clubs, and poetry community at https://versedcommunity.mn.co/
