Specifically, I'm looking at Marcel Proust, Robert Frost, and Claude McKay. How is their work different from 19th century poets? How is the language and structure, etc. different?

I just bought the Robert Frost book at a library book sale and have had little time to read of it. I have not read the other two books either. I do think the language of literature in the twentieth century has been more difficult to grasp very many particular meanings from they are being blended at such high rate of speed you might want to call it a literary stream of thought where all the languages are being fed to our minds and life through a straw. It might very well be the reflection of the American addiction which counter acts for an impulse in the rise of drug use.
