normal and well-adjusted characters The abnormal and the neurotic characters Frost the only poet in the history of English literature has gained myriad human psychology in poetry He is totally different from Robert Browning of England because Browning has sketched characters that rest on success or failure On the other hand Frost has created characters based on mentality For instance in the poem Mending Wall we get two characters who are neurotic and well-adjusted The speaker of the poem is a young normal one but the old neighbor is a neurotic one who comments Good fences make good neighbour Thus in many of his poems including Home Burial Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening The Death of Hired Man and so on Frost has shown his mastery in the analysis of human psychology Intimate and personal knowledge of the New Englanders Frost is called a local and regional poet because of his deep passion for his local and regional countryside and deep observation of the mentality of the people of New England the northeastern region of the United States of America comprising six states According to the critics Frost has similarities with Wordsworth regarding local and regional knowledge only No other poet of English literature has as deep knowledge as Frost of the local people One of the famous collections of poetry is North of Boston published in in which all the characters of his poems are from New England The conflict of the human heart Frost is called a poet of the common man because of his profound analytical knowledge of the conflict of the human heart One of the best readable poems is The Road not Taken which illustrates the conflict of the human heart of the split speaker The speaker is confused and puzzled by the two diversified roads before him This character symbolically represents all human hearts Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth Frost is a poet of ordinary human beings much like Wordsworth Above all his humans are not idealized but real He has drawn all these portraits with the sympathy and tenderness of feelings of a great poet
