Book Reviews of The Rape of the Lock (Vintage Classics)
Book Review: Belindramatic!
Summary: 4 Stars
This poem, by Pope, should be classed amongst the 'greats' of English literature. Although the story is not immediately obvious, and Pope's patronising attitude towards women may be thought offensive in the modern day, his jokey tone and mocking of heroic actions make for a great piece of poetry.
