have you seen the wonderful bill knott archive good gracious the editor has collected the late poet's self-published books and archived his various blogs plus there are his art work and notebooks and photos of knott and family what a grand work of love i mean it bill knott was an important poet in my life the dude was a contrarian in many ways but he never ever ever wavered from his life in poetry i remember a panegyric knott wrote to the actress yancy butler on one of his blogs that is a model of his deep learning and passion for his subject that felt to me like pure love
