The "New & Neglected" column is still here, featuring reviews of Jack Spicer, Jonathan Brannen, Andrew Joran and a few others. But the balance seems to shift more & more toward the satirical and humorous--an interview with the Devil on how to make it in the poetry world; an excerpt from the forthcoming "Selected Blurbs and Prefaces of Robert Creeley"; Tom Phan's catalog of fingernail references in Samuel R. Delany's autobiography; and a list of soon-to-be-chic Poetry Fashions. The humor is smart and pointed, almost bitter--inside jokes for the not quite insiders of the poetry world.--luigi
