The reading has been outstanding so far (I have not read Grünbein yet), and most of your thoughts on 'For All We Know' correspond with the notes I chopped down while reading, although, of course, your blog entry is more elaborate and comes with the better examples. So am I looking forward to that Seminar? You bet!Michael Listeninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10016645456304376847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20782819.post-65299249158441764982008-03-11T08:12:00.000+01:002008-03-11T08:12:00.000+01:00The Carson is so good that it makes me want to fin...The Carson is so good that it makes me want to finally realize my project of teaching a course on verse novels. <BR/><BR/>Fredy Neptune, by Les Murray<BR/>Autobiography of Red, by Anne Carson<BR/>For All We Know, by Ciaran Carson<BR/><BR/>And one or two more, perhaps. Fred D'Aguiar, Bernardine Evaristo, or John Bricuth, say. And since I can teach in German, perhaps Durs Grünbein's "Vom Schnee" or Christoph Ransmayr's "Der fliegende Berg."Andrew Shieldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02804655739574694901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20782819.post-40509681180055943202008-03-10T23:49:00.000+01:002008-03-10T23:49:00.000+01:00I heard Ciaran Carson read in Glasgow a month or t...I heard Ciaran Carson read in Glasgow a month or two ago. I thought he was terrific. Sounds like a book to buy. <BR/><BR/>I have Jen Hadfield's debut collection, <I>Almanacs</I>, which was astonishing, so your description of this new one as "flat" really surprised me, but I haven't seen it yet myself. However, I will be reviewing it for a UK print magazine when they send it to me.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17046788730174617923noreply@blogger.com
