The Poet Anacreon with his Muses. 1890
We have a new interview on tap below. This time with Alessio Zanelli, an Italian poet who has graced our pages before. It's often interesting to get a sense of the working methods and inspiraton behind contemporary artists, and interviews are a good way of doing that. I also think it's important to support them. So many of us choose to read great works of writers long gone, and fail to see the art right in front of our noses.

Reading Stefan Zweig's excellent The Post-Office Girl right now. Will do a review shortly. Also will post about one of my favorite books, The Ginger Man, by J.P. Donleavy. A true classic. Brilliant. Funny. Unforgettable.
