Susie Asado By Gertrude Stein

Even though I couldn't understand and relate any of the lines that Stein has written in her poetry "Susie Asado," I still find it quite interesting. "Susie Asado," even though I did not understand if the poetry says something about Susie Asado, or if she is sweet as tea, or that she drinks pups, makes me as the reader read it over and over again, and only then to try and picture what she is describing. Hence, Stein has left space for the reader to understand her poetry in the way they "understand" it, in the way they picture it, and shape an idea of what she is talking about. Personally, I DID NOT understand anything that she was trying to portray or describe in this poetry. The only thing I got is that the tea is sweet :)))).  But, Stein, not only was a writer, she was also well known for her art collection and her Paris salon. Thus, I guess that she was a woman with interesting ideas about life, art, and also an interesting way of portraying her thoughts in words.
