On Marking Books: Laine Farley & Lauren Roberts
Can one collect bookmarks without having to make room for them? Sure-if what you collect is bookmark allusions, that is, references to bookmarks in books. Frank talks about his collection of these literary bookmarks.
Readings: Henry Carrigan
Seventeenth-century poet George Herbert was a major influence on later, better-known ones. But it's not for that reason Herbert is worth reading, says Henry. Rather, it is the intellectual wordplay and playful structure of the poems.
Seasoned Lightly: Anne Michael
How do you start a library? By accident, of course!
Talking Across the Table: Daniel M. Jaffe
Dan has been interviewing writers for more than two years. His interviews have been intriguing, insightful and, most of all, enlightening. Now, as he prepares to say good-bye, he reflects on those questions that particularly intrigued him, and how his interviewees addressed those questions.
