Join the queue, J. "But seriously": (to others) do > buy this book (Flung Clear)... - OK, I bought 2 copies - one for the Library, one for me - but I gladly forego my rights to witness the apicultural atrocity on offer. I can't abide cruelty to bees. The book's fine, full of wit (? but no sting) and compression and "curious matter" (? to comb out - sorry -). "Young poets" - should there be any out there - should be made to study JW's inventiveness with lineation and verse patterns, quite apart from anything else. It's available from Parataxis, c/o Drew Milne, English Dept., University of Sussex and perhaps someone will remind us all of the price. RC %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
