Bobbi Lurie Dear Paul,
This is a great review. Congratulations.

How do you add such things (sites, reviews etc.) onto goodreads?

I just got a review of new book etc.

I love your book. I have not read words yet. I just love having it.

I'm happy to see you are receiving kudos.
Bobbi

Bobbi Lurie I did not realize I had written a public message. Now it is public information that I don't know how to use this site and, I will add, am incompetent on the internet (other than having the tendency of making a fool of myself--I seem to be a professional at this)

Being as this is public, I would like to emphasize the fact that Paul Siegell is very talented, creating work in a variety of styles.

Paul's book "jambandbootleg" is absolutely brilliant (please see my review)--

I am still enjoying the physicality of Paul's new book (I did the same thing with Bok's book, Enoia.

I want to publish the review I wrote on "jambandbootleg" but did not want to do it according to the formula of:

poem
commentary of poem
poem
philosophy of poetry and exhibition of erudite knowledge
poem
conclusion by author

because I felt this book was a gestalt--a whole experience. I will say for now that Paul Siegell's new book made me see how rightly I had seen Paul's work in the light of "gestalt"--a single poem, a small book meant to be carried. also, an amazing feat to have created this visual beauty of a book all in WORD.
