[New-Poetry] Poet's Bookshelf

[David Graham]

A pretty impressive list.

2 quibbles, for what they're worth.

On my browser, at least, the whole list appears as a solid slug of  
type.  An actual list would be much more readable.

Also, the longer the list, the less helpful it is without some  
annotation.  Even some bare description would be nice, if not  
evaluative comments or some categorization.

Among contemporary critical voices, I recommended David Kirby's  
*Ultra-Talk* collection of essays a while back.  I would also like to  
recommend with great pleasure his collection entitled *What Is a  
Book*, which I've been dipping into with delight.
