  • Lit Mag Duals

I learned so much from this podcast, and now I am eager to see what I can do to make a single concrete image convey so many qualities. I also appreciate the podcast’s pointing out the serious faults Ezra Pound had, as well as his talent for writing magnificent poetry. It’s hard to comprehend how a person who had such great appreciation for beauty could also hold so much hatred for those who didn’t share his beliefs. Thank... more
