Too right. She wrote at least one other sestina that I couldn't find a PD copy of for this collection, too. I knew I wouldn't be able to locate everything I found a record of, but it's a pity that some of hers slipped through the net!

Four more, a bit more of a mixed bag than the last round. Mr Weeks had an astonishing moustache, though.

It's certainly a cut above some of the offerings in this collection.

On balance, I think I prefer the readings of you, two, to Ezra.

You're very kind, Pam.

I was having coffee with a former colleague and out of nowhere he said, 'You know someone who wasn't good at reading his own work? Yeats!'. It certainly kickstarted an interesting conversation, though I don't think Pound's name came up as a good or a bad reader.

Hi Erin,

Section 42: at 05:32 I hear "Oh my poor head" instead of "Oh poor my head"
