 So I gave a Stone Telling interview (about POETRY) over at WC Roberts' blog, and said I would be happy to answer questions. Along comes this person I do not know, and says this:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sure.

What was it like growing up in the former Soviet Union?

How were you affected by the changes '89-92?

Why did you leave?

What has been like for you, as an immigrant?

Why should death scare you?

How do you feel about Chekhov, or Gogol?

How is Russian literature represented to the west, especially the American midwest?

What is speculative poetry like in the former USSR today?

What was it like to be a poet in the USSR?

What has the "experiment" of the Marxist-Leninism or Stalinism to teach us about humanity, and how can/should these lessons be applied to predictions/visions of the future?

What good is human cognition?--------------------------------------------------------------
I have not said anything yet, but these questions make me feel like a zoo exhibit. Do you see why?
