Hi, I just joined this site. I noticed that you're a poetry fan. Have you read Unexpected Light? Here's a link: http://www.cechaffin.com

Howdy,
we have a (disturbingly) large number of books in common, especially in the poetics/manuals department (most of mine are yet to be catalogued). I'll have to pick your brains about a few.
One you haven't listed that you might find worthwhile - Ruth Padel's 52 Ways of Looking at a Poem. Curious to know if you've come across it yet/before, and how it shapes up from an American perspective ...

Hello - You have a terrific poetry collection. I've made note of quite a number of books you have that I'll have to look for, particularly those published in the last 10 years. I haven't been keeping up with the field for quite a long time, and I see there is some intriguing work out there I want to know more about. Thanks!

I picked on your profile randomly because you own a book on Absinthe...and find that you are in Denton, TX. Are you going to UNT? I am also in a graduate program there.

Another odd coincidence, have had a few of those since joining LT!!

Hi there. I was just admiring (well, envying, really) your library. We share a love of Rilke, poetry in general, and gothic lit. Do you write?

i agree with venus on this one - i should do the same. i'd also like to check out your extensive collection on vampires.

perhaps i should borrow some poetry from you.

No blatantly fake entries thus far, but I'm watching you, poet. :)
