Lately I've been on holiday in another world, which has been
strangely restful. Just returned to this one, and it looks just as
dire as it ever did. Anyone else here read Robert Fisks's article in
the Independent the other day about what it's like in Taliban-held
Afghanistan? Yeah, right.
Anyway, for these and myriad other reasons, I was pondering Heiner
Muller's statement that "poets have to be stupid". (It's probably
important to remember that Muller writes poetry). I think he's right.
But why?
Best
Alison
