His work is elusive, and the more you read it, the more there is, and familiarity isn't a problem.<br /><br />He isn't telling stories, and he isn't trying to inspire the reader to religions transcendence. He's after something else. I don't feel he and Fagin have anything much in common.Curtis Favillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06213075853354387634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660090614793277371.post-3379353126316058432011-01-21T16:03:06.825-08:002011-01-21T16:03:06.825-08:00This work does remind me of Larry Fagin's work...This work does remind me of Larry Fagin's work.<br /><br />I had never read this poet.
