A nod to Kierkegaard and Walker Percy: existentialist tomfoolery, political satire, literary homage, word mongering, a year-round summer reading club, Dylanesque music bits, apocalyptic marianism, poetry, fiction, meta-porn, a prisoner work-release program.

Good katch!
Interesting, by the bye, that one of Gioia’s most melancholy poems, ‘Unsaid’ (which concludes the Korrektiv post you linked to) mentions ‘the letters that we write our dead’; whereas ‘Finding a Box of Family Letters’ (which was in the Writer’s Almanac you linked to), which moves through melancholy to become one of his most hopeful, is about letters we read from our dead.
That was beautiful, thanks.

Good stuff, FYI.
A good fella, Jess is.
