What does /lit/ think of Anne Carson?
I've been thinking about brushing up on the classics (I didn't #swtg) and thought she'd be a nice bridge between the classical and contemporary eras.
I thought that was mira Sanchez

Wha
Reading Autobiography of Red for the second time now, it's great, definately read it if you can - you can breeze through it in like five hours if you really want, but you'd be better off giving it time to grow on you, a few chapters a day.
Also if you're in the mood for something similar-but-not-really check out Thomas Meyer's translation of Beowulf, you can get the pdf for free on the publishing house (Punctum books) site.

HAve you read Red Doc>? Is it worth its "belated sequel" status. I find it hard to believe that it would be a cash-in on Carson's part. From what I've heard/read of her, she doesn't publish lightly.

I haven't, but I will soon. Honestly I can hardly imagine that she'd publish something for economic reasons. What would be the point, I imagine she's doing well enough with her academic job/publications. Really want to pick the book up soon, alongside her other stuff.
Canadians can't think, they can't write.
There's no discernible talent.
