Poetry News For October 7, 2008

Poetry News:

— If we could read the poets that move huge audiences elsewhere in the world, would it wake up our own? —

— “Accident Plays a Part in Art” from Poetry Magazine Podcast … with Kasischke on Ken Burns, Lindsay on Krakatau, Sheffield on fishing, and Logan on Hart Crane (and David Foster Wallace). [mp3] —

— Ted Hughes’s letters contain some splendid perceptions and useful biographical material among a mass of interminable explication. —

— As the title suggests, Cities of Flesh and the Dead isn’t afraid of addressing loss or fear or violence. —

— Hey Bookslut reviewed my book thanks some happy in a cruddy week. Thanks for getting my jokes. —

— Poetry that doesn’t toe a party line —

Yep - testing is all scheduled. I’m looking forward to a resolution.

Thanks.

I definitely have postural tachycardia syndrome. I have to go back for a week, next month, for more tests. 10 GRAMS of salt is what I have to eat everyday. That’s, like, 30 large orders of McDonald’s fries I think hahaha.
