Sad news earlier this week that Rob Mackenzie is suspending activities on his Surroundings blog.
Surroundings has been one of the most interesting blogs on the U.K. poetry scene these past few years and is packed with reviews of collections and mags, comments on poetry news and links to lots of dodgy music videos such as the recent Neil Diamond season (I'm a closet fan too!). I thoroughly recommend a browse through its archive.
Bob Hicok has always had a serious side, with some of his poems dealing
with topics such as racism, sexual abuse and puberty, but I don’t think I
am alone ...
Who can resist 'Love on the Rocks'? I'm a closet fan.
