Peter Riley (Books) new catalogue out next week, 20th Century British
poetry second-hand + some new small-press releases of great interest. If
you're not on the mailing-list you can request a copy by e-mail.
Andrew Duncan has written a very interesting essay about Barry MacSweeney.
But he's put it in a magazine called Belt (or something like that) from the
Isle of Man, presumably as a means of making sure that no one reads it.
Is for the 1970s, I was there at the time and it was hell. It was the most
appalling disaster and all I want to do is forget it.
