Thanks for the shout out! So glad Aaron brought us together. Listen, I think we need to hear about your favorite poets, how about a top 10 favorites video?
Oh! You know, I had forgotten that it was Aaron's comment section that led me to discovering you :-) Hmmm.... your mention of a favourite poets video has me thinking now ... once again you've sent me back to my shelves to try and think things through. I really appreciate that, thanks xx
It’s been so long since I have read something by IB Singer, but I still remember its immersive effect. The one I read is The Manor, a family saga set in 19th century Poland. An aristocrat goes into hiding, assuming the surname of a peasant, which happens to be my family name-I expect it’s the only time I will ever encounter it within literature. Thank you for sharing your thoughts (and the thoughts of others) on the subject of poetry. ❤
I was just watching the magpies in my garden this morning, and now here you are in my comment box :-) I'm always interested in what you have to say, and I hadn't heard of "The Manor" until now. Reading Singer does feel like a trip to an older time and place, and he seems to have taken up residence in my soul this month. Warm regards, E x
I discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I’m enjoying so much watching your videos! I watched older ones and you made me order 2 novels from Gerald Murnane via my local bookshop. I cannot wait to discover this writer now! 😊 And what a coincidence, I just read my very first novel from I.B. Singer this week « The Magician of Lublin ». 😮
Welcome and thank you so much for your comment here, it means so much to me! I hope Murnane's imagination takes off in your mind is it did in mine. What a coincidence about "The Magician of Lublin", wow, did you enjoy it? I look forward to reading more of your comments as time goes by. Also, please feel free to comment even if you disagree with me, I'm always looking for different views and personalities in my comment boxes. Warm regards, E.

One of the things I most love about Modernist/contemporary poetry is its energy: it exists within exception (in proof of the rule).
I don’t understand … maybe you might explain a bit further?
