Many histories deep
I'm reading the hardback, actually (the dead man who owned it before me sure liked his cigarettes). And it's too bad there isn't a photo-icon on this page. My dust jacket has a swell shot of Jarrell and his beard. Man, I wish I could grow whiskers like that. My wife would hate it but I think it would give my face that Educated Lumberjack look it's been after forever.
Later. . .
I admit, I didn't read every essay in here but I read most of them and now I'll put it back on the shelf for awhile, let us rest. I will say that parts of it moved me and all of it wowed me. I think we'd all be better off if this man would have lived longer, wrote more.
