The poem âDesert Placesâ by Robert Frost depicts the speakerâs lonely mind in a deserted place, resonating with the current times; the inevitable return of depression and universal human loneliness.

Frost explores loneliness, emptiness, and some positive aspects that can result from being put in an isolated place, and he manages to balance the mood of the poem delicately...

Audenâs dedication suggests the poem was written to be inscribed on a marble monument to this âunknown citizenâ, but of course, such a monument is fictional (as is the âBureau of Statisticsâ in the poemâs opening line). His âunknown citizenâ is being memorialised because of his remarkable averageness. What is Auden saying with...
