]]> Comment on GROWL by wilf jones http://damiengwalter.com/2011/05/06/growl/#comment-3537 wilf jones Thu, 10 May 2012 22:39:21 +0000 http://damiengwalter.com/?p=1644#comment-3537 Not completely sure whether you are supporting those fans of fanzines or mocking them. Or maybe it is simply a description? Good accurate images - oddly reminded of Christopher Priest flogging me a copy of Islands utterly weary of the whole process but knowing he must - but confused message maybe, or maybe no message at all? But that's the thing about howling or growling - it's a native, often guttural, emotional response and little to do with coherent argument. Of course I never expect poems to be coherent argument. Made me think - and that makes it worth the read. Apologies - am aware that these comments boxes are generally supposed to be filled with positive responses. But then considered is positive in my book. Not completely sure whether you are supporting those fans of fanzines or mocking them. Or maybe it is simply a description?

For what it's worth, I think Terry Pratchett deserves to be alongside, if not above, most of the names mentioned (except perhaps for Douglas Adams). Humour is clearly a significant indicator of wsdom... Should’ve asked on google+ too, then you might have had more responses.
