Joel Robert Ferguson : part five

When you require renewal, is there a particular poem or book that you return to? A particular author?

Oddly enough, when I’m feeling burnt out on poetry my go-to reads are the prose works of poets, be they essays and fiction. Especially the short stories and critical writing of Roberto Bolaño, his prose writing is consistently playful, snarky and inventive in ways that usually get me writing poetry again.
