I must finish reading some books for a phone conference in the morning, plus I have a ferrying job today, so . . . frolic as you like, here or elsewhere! Soon I will do a post on the recommended new(ish) poetry books, so if you have something to add, please add a book. I am surprised by how many people have popped by to read this piece, and am wondering if that is simply because I mentioned a controversy (Giraldi-Ohlin), or whether people relish the idea of turning their backs on things they are "supposed" to do and following the muse through "hollow lands and hilly lands." Perhaps both.
