baronessekat | 2016 Reading Challenge: A book you haven't read since High School

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I first read this back in high school and remembered enjoying it then. Now, 25ish years later, that has not changed.

I loved the overall tale, the imagery, the use of words. Returning to the tale after having experienced adulthood, I understand more of the cautionary tale the Ancient Mariner was trying to impart to the young Wedding Guest.

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner was, is and will always be a true classic and I hope they still have it as required reading in school these days
