Got this email from David Silva today and thought it would be good to share. - dc
I'm recommending you read Sourdough Lookout by Philip Whalen today. Wonderful poem. His best, possibly? Certainly his most famous.
I then continued reading backwards in On Bears Head, got as far a Souffle.
Speaking of trying to find your PW books. Upon my return from
Japan, I read Scenes From Life At the Capital in its totality. Then
wanted to read Schneider's PW bio, Crowded by Beauty, on the parts when PW was in Kyoto.
Weirdest thing, I could not find either book, even tho I'd just read
Scenes, and Crowded By Beauty is way too large a book to lose. Maybe I
should spend my time sheltering in place organizing my library.
