What r some good study guides for Skrzynecki stuff? (1 Viewer)

[Giant Lobster]

I hate his poetry. Its so hard to understand... frankly i prefer to read Paradise Lost than his stuff. Well maybe its cos I suck anyway, what r some good study guides for his poetry and physical journeys in particular? sanks.

yeap, I have the excel Skrzynecki guide. its okay, but doesnt focus on journeys. for some reason, the author wrote it for the "change" AOS, instead of the journeys one. doesnt really matter though, the close analysis of each poem is really handy.

The Excel guide that I have was written last year so it focuses on Change. My sister asked Dymocks about one for Journeys and they said it will come out early next year.

The notes/responses floating around are good but a few poems this year weren't studied last year (yeah I'm looking at you a drive the country).
