Figes, H.D., Vollmann, Freud, Fisher, etc.: Whateverday Reads!

Also featuring rambles on Rick Harsch, Robin Wall Kimmerer, Fleur Jaeggy, Roberto Calasso, H.D., Lacan Man Whose Name I Can't Remember, and I think Anne Sexton gets 1/4th of a mention somewhere too.
Also read Julia Kristeva.
Also here's the link to my favourite Junior Boys song, Teach Me How to Fight: • Junior Boys - Teach Me...

Good to see you, Q. Side note: H.D.'s husband, Richard Aldington, besides also being an Imagist poet, wrote an incredibly bitter novel, The Colonel's Daughter, which is most amusing.
All the best in 2025.

@@TheChannelofaDisappointedMan thanks for the comment, Jason! Aldington and H.D..... another great literary couple. His imagist poetry is very good though it runs slightly tedious, but I've never read his novel. Thanks for putting it on my radar.
Hope your new year goes well, too!
