Wells, vitriolic?
Exacting, yes. Opinionated, certainly. Knows his own tastes and his own mind and will give you his reasons, you bet.
But vitriolic? When?
My favourite bit is how I "dominate" reviewing space in Canada. Who knew? I wonder if I can use that on a CV? Here I thought I was only publishing 15-20 reviews a year in a couple of magazines.
Oops, just checked. I published 31 reviews in 2005. Bad Zach.
I thought I was the most vitriolic reviewer in Canada.
You and I are going to have to have an insult-off to settle this.
Do your worst, you cretinous amoebic pusbag.
Hang on a second. I have to retrieve your latest book from the bathroom. I think a few of the pages might be left.
I hope they gave you papercuts on your rectum and inflicted you with intractable hemmorhoids.
They did that to me and I was only READING them...
Thereby disproving Auden's assertion that poetry makes nothing happen.
