The poetry goddess-among-us, Alice Notley, shares her to-read pile this month. Her latest collection, For the Ride, is just out from Penguin!
With the public library closed, I keep accumulating books through my local bookstore. (Check out BookShop.org if you are wanting to do something akin to this, too, and don’t have a bookstore you know of!) All this quarantine time has given me space to do a lot of reading, at least.
