Winged with Death Reviews
Now when I hear of people taking a year off to write, I worry that a year might not be enough. You must fail as a writer for much longer than that, I think, before you know what failure is and what use you might make of it. I didn't realise, when that first book fell apart, that every book falls apart. That this is the gig. You sit there and watch your word-count drop, and you hold your nerve. Anne Enright

Good to see and hear. What an unlikely but delightful pairing. Sad that he’s gone. Only Pete Seeger and Rambling Jack left now that Utah Phillips has joined Woody Guthrie and ‘Cisco and Sonny and Leadbelly too’.

Glad you liked it, Dick. For some reason I thought Jack Elliott was dead, so good to hear he’s still up and kicking. Great teller of tales. There’s a few early photographs of him here: http://www.cookephoto.com/ramblinjack.html
