Thread for snipe, snark, and ad hominem grandstanding

[TSherbs]

I love the line about bent pines that limp in crowds. Nicely done!

I should dig out the worksheet for that one to see what the original characters were. Sam Hamill, head of Copper Canyon Press (which published the Red Pine translations) gave a workshop when I was a grad student, many years ago. Interesting guy. He died in 2018. He liked the translation, but turned down my first book.

Were you a grad student at Iowa?
