"Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.
Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read." -Groucho Marx

Fine short essay on Hart Crane.
Driving home from the Midwest, I stopped in Garrettsville, Ohio, to visit the Crane family plot, where there is a memorial to the oblique, tortured, intensely American poet Hart Crane, who is one of my liberators. From the start, I was drawn to poems that resisted my intelligence. (via Henri Cole’s Trip to Hart Crane’s Family Plot, in Garrettsville, Ohio : The New Yorker)
