For the benefit of those list members who have yet to come across it, let
me recommend you to John Tranter's new web magazine *Jacket*. The first
"issue" contains interviews with Roy Fisher and Lionel Fogarty; poems by
Fogarty, Bernstein, Rakosi, Tracy Ryan, Susan Schultz etc; a feature on the
Ern Malley hoax, plus reviews of Les Murray & John Berger.
The second issue, which is partly available and is due for completion by
Xmas, is an Ashbery number containing new poems by JA, an interview with
him by JT, and essays on JA by Marjorie Perloff and JT. In addition to this
there is a forum on Bob Perelman's new book "The Marginalisation of Poetry"
with contributions from Silliman, Lauterbach, Spahr, Evans and Lilley (not
yet on the site) and further poems and articles yet to be announced.
Splendid stuff, and excellent design.
Do check it out on http://www.jacket.zip.com.au
