Exciting to see him in the NYRB series. I devoured the book minutes after I picked it up at the local indie on Saturday, wrote a poem about the experience of reading it, sent the poem to Ron, and he said it was "lovely." A great exchange with a great American!10 Mar 2025 18:15 +0000at://did:plc:oxusb64tofnmdn3usrxlnhrw/app.bsky.feed.post/3lk25ula2qc27
