@atswim I just would prefer someone reads thoughtfully rather than inhaling at the most efficient speed possible for the sake of, to quote Tamara Shopsin, an "arbitrary stupid goal," but I suppose it's no skin off my back either way.

My life in publishing began at Norton, and with Carol Houck Smith and Gerald Stern’s LAST BLUE. His poem “Lucky Life” has remained a touchstone. RIP to an exuberant son of Pittsburgh, of New Jersey, of Walt Whitman. https://t.co/ozkAiOjtU2
