Thanks, I'll start on the Dante.
You are all quite welcome!
Just as a curiosity, what poets or collections did you grab?
I grabbed loads!
The very first thing I went for was Stevie Smith - I love SS but don't have any of her stuff in audio. But more than me, Lia (my wife) loves her. My personal favourite however is definitely Sir John Betjemen. Not just his wonderful words, but his subject matters are things that are often either close to my heart, and often places that I grew up!
I'm also a considerable beat scene fan - I was surprised as there was quite a bit there that I didn't already have.
Coleridge, Shelley, Sexton, War stuff - loads.
I like my poetry read or even performed to me. I never really read it - I like to listen.
Cheers again for a wonderful collection Bob.
I'm very happy that you're enjoying the collection. That's why I offered it.
I alos see that your tatses, like mine, are rather eclectic!
"Do you like Kipling?"
"I don't know. I've never Kippled."
Thanks for sharing.
As is often the case Bob - I salute you!
