Although Robert Frost’s poetry recounts practical activities (mowing, apple-picking…), the characters often indulge in utopian dreams, many of them based on the American notion that a better future lies on the other side of the hill (or fence). This essay explores the clash between utopian visions and harsh realities that characterises his poetry.
