Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Tubingen (Englisches Seminar), course: Seminar, language: English, abstract: Searching for couples in the middle of the night next to a graveyard is not the usual night out for everybody. The verses 27onwards in the poem “Skunk Hour” by Robert Lowell, written in 1957, mark a change, a volta, from a colourful scheme to a dark tone. The poem has elements of setting up three specific people who are characterized through loneliness, isolation and showiness against skunks. The “hermit heiress”, “summer millionaire” and the “fairy decorator” are introduced in different stanzas. The speaker gives a short and unique glimpse into their life. This unusual comparison and dramatic change of events will be further analysed in this essay.
