I didn't wholly feel equipped to comment on it; still, yes, the Brady part is combative, but it's in response to the Don Paterson Graywolf introduction that has probably been discussed here before I was on the list. That probably bears as much weight as any "but they started it!" argument ever does, of course. I liked that the first response was 'is it true?', too; I know I've read things recently that fell into that description, but that's not to drag every connected author with them. Initially though it was just that it seemed to be speaking to Carrie's original query about this distinction between the lyric and the modernist. If I'd been smarter I might have contextualised that better in my previous, sorry.
