Response: the real west marginal way

I found his explanation of where he came from very interesting, and it was clear how this essay correlated with our memoir project. I liked the poems as his way of describing what the people were like and how the environment affected their habits, routines and behavior. It was also interesting that, although he spent most of the essay concentrating on his observations of other people and their surroundings in west Seattle, I was able to gauge hoe this location shaped Hugo’s outlook and also his poetry.
