... Greetings! ... This should be interesting. What similarities first drew you to this project (and which poems of David Jones? who is he? Most of us on...
Dear Tony et al., David Jones is an Anglo-Welsh artist and writer. I first came across him nearly thirty years ago through his book-length poem Anathemata,...
This is an interesting subject. I've always wondered, American that I am, what was the magic about London and Britain with CW in particular. I'd like to know...

Thank you, John. I just ordered An Unexpected Light and the FALLPP08 coupon code did work for me. The code looks like it stands for Pickwick Press 08 books so...
... I ran a trial run and it appears that the coupon code works for ALL of Wipf & Stock's books, not just the ones in the Pickwick line. But the 40% is a bit...
