Sorry to miss the Lister reading. Thanks for the many tips. Best wishes to the poet!

How is the Chesterbelloc exploration going? I just read The Man Who Was Thursday, which a friend told me would illuminate Orthodoxy; and Belloc's Four Men and his Milton, both delightful. In the poetry department, Chesterton's Ballad of the White Horse, a long narrative poem about Alfred the Great, shows a mastery and finesse that should impress fairly demanding readers. The Belloc poetry I have heard recited was hilarious. Best, Bill
