EJ knew ET well, she may have been in love with him, but as a fellow poet, she has a different perspective on his work. I also enjoyed Helen Thomas's books & his poetry is glorious.lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04509400868331534237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020849054403226268.post-71198733125069203182010-11-14T01:19:32.862+11:002010-11-14T01:19:32.862+11:00Lyn, thank you, you remind me that it's time f...Lyn, thank you, you remind me that it's time for me to read this one again.
