“Things Fall aparT” - 1917-45
FRYE AWC2 April 2017
50 or so objective questions and an essay
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity
