Adam Dalgliesh :
A poet who is cop. Saves the good from the bad. Nice combo.
Thanks to PD James. Why not? And why not poets who
who are patriarchal, monarchists;
Dostoevski - at the end years, a believer in the Orthodox.
Why the assumption that poets must believe in feminisms,
or be non-patriarchal. Poets, can be anything they want.
Long as they write poetry. They don't need or have
to justify anything . The rest is about being a citizen.
Besides , who says Patriarchy is bad?
What is wrong with the Father?
That is not wrong with the Mother?
Joyce, from the evidence one gathers inthe Wake,
was a catholic, a patriarch, and indeed a fine and great writer.
'Et tant d'autres et tant d'autres.'
and please dont say Dostoevski was not a poet,
just because he wrote novels.
That means Joyce was not a poet.
O yes I realize that Finnegans Wake is different.
I like the last word 'the'
