The Martyrdom of Man
Reade Winwood
Strange serendipity of encountering two unconnected recommendations of Winwood Reade's The Martyrdom of Man in 24 hours: one in a speculative discussion of Sherlock Holmes' literary tastes, and one in an essay by the poet Tom Leonard. Should I... read it? https://t.co/wykO9cQOc7

After
Vivek Narayanan
@niewview @bookhive Bless you for thinking about this! I love 3 of those (Welton, Rankine, Barber) and have also very much enjoyed teaching the Wilson Odyssey this semester. Vivek Narayanan's After is also a great narrative verse translation (and more in your own mode of using many genres)
