I'm always glad when other literary, bookish types don't really "get" poetry - I like John Donne and Wendy Cope and the First World War Poets and nothing much else!LyzzyBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16398604923871095647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-68681381525229932672014-06-16T22:01:26.334+01:002014-06-16T22:01:26.334+01:00I did omit mentioning that, and deliberately ;) I ...I did omit mentioning that, and deliberately ;) I wanted to avoid giving spoilers!StuckInABookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10017836017530130716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-91808338504046955492014-06-16T22:00:54.036+01:002014-06-16T22:00:54.036+01:00She's so fun!
