Chekhov's Mistress

She’s Back

by Bud Parr

Leave it to a publisher to so fundamentally misunderstand think up the idea of having a blog one month out of the year (where’s the myspace page?), but at the least it’s my amiga Ami Greko (say it like eekho) running the FSG poetry blog: http://www.fsgpoetry.com/

She says:

We’ll have a lot of great stuff, including:
An all new couplet composed by Robert Pinsky and available for download as your ringtone
A whole week devoted to poetry in translation, with posts from many of FSG’s award-winning translators
More original audio recorded exclusively for the blog by Frank Bidart, Les Murray, August Kleinzahler, Yusef Komunyakaa, and more
Free, downloadable broadsheets appropriate for brightening up even the most boring cubicle.

Laugh at the idea of a Pinsky couplet ringtone, but then again…

Any poetry at all would do, as long as it’s not Yeats reading “Lake Isle of Innisfree”, thanks.
The Ginsberg sounds pretty cool. Though at present I would like to get a phone that lets me compose things, and put a little fragment of the latest Goldfrapp release on it for myself. Just for me.
