"Richard Cory" By Edwin A. Robinson My perspective on the poem Richard Cory is that he was a very admirable man. He was liked and thought of as a wealthy, educated and very rich. I feel that all of the town’s people had a very different perspective of what he felt he was. If he realized all the good others noticed he had I don’t think he would have killed himself. He wasn’t happy and in the end and that is what mattered. Although he was perceived as an okay man.

To me Richard Cory is about an educated, friendly, rich guy. People thought he was a good and nice guy. He was really smart, treated people with respect, and he was a down to earth person. To me the reason he killed himself is because he was unhappy with his life. Contrast to popular belief, he couldn’t be happy with his richness. The reason cause his richness couldn’t buy him family, happiness, or love. This is my view on Richard Cory.
