thank you, Pat. Yes, I know bits of Auden's poetry but am overdue a wider look. And would love to read the 2 volume bio by Mendelson. I love his description of himself when older as having a face which looks like "a wedding cake left out in the rain."
2nd hand bookstores are fascinating places - one simply must go in just to see what they have!
I vary between thinking "great way to afford books" and the more stark "I'm looking at other people's leavings - are they actually any good?"
Lovely poetry books, Heather.
