BOOKS: Furthermore: Jul. 25, 1994
You've seen the movie, now read the poem. Vintage Books has rushed out an anthology of 10 poems by W.H. Auden that features Funeral Blues, memorably recited in Four Weddings and a Funeral. Aided by a display showing Hugh Grant and Andie MacDowell, the $6 book, Tell Me the Truth About Love, is selling briskly. The Auden boomlet must cheer Princeton University Press. In September it will publish Juvenilia, 200 mostly unpublished poems that Auden wrote between 15 and 21.
