Deborah, "The Armada Hedge" took me straight to England: it's a triumph. "The Size of Happiness" was also full of surprising pleasures. This opportunity to savor a sample of your originality means I'm looking forward to the book. Congratulations!
Clive, "Cherryburn" and "For a Friend on the Death of Her Husband" are each like something out of another century, which commends them to me for, among other qualities, carrying an exquisite peacefulness and sweetness. I'll be looking forward to your book as well: kudos to you! I smiled at your bit of dry wit in "took a law degree but, repenting of that profession..." If you haven't already written a poem on that subject, I suggest its time has come: light verse, of course!
