2. All the short stories by Daphne Du Maurier (not pictured The Rendezvous-Vous & Other Stories & Don’t Look Now). I went through a giant Du Maurier phase in The New Year and loved every second of it. https://t.co/Pe5CSRGFAJ

8. TURN UP THE OCEAN by Tony Hoagland- the last & posthumously published collection of this funny & sad poet: “Your job is to stay calm Your job is to watch and take notes, to go on looking. Your job is to not be turned into stone.” Read it & weep. I did. @GraywolfPress https://t.co/3oyNCZmANN
