POETRY & DRAMA NEW & SELECTED
I had to to separate my new books into categories of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. It’s a good problem to have — too many good books to feature. I am going to be discriminating and probably slow to work on the poetry page. I have a large poetry section in the store, but I have not considered most of it for listing before. Look forward to a steady and deliberate listing of a wide variety of poetry and lyrics books in the days to come.

A single supermarket teabag of black tea can contain two dozen different grades of tea from whole leaf to dust (there are eight categories of dust alone), bringing various flavour profiles, prices and origins. Blending them for that unwavering taste is an art. Tea leaves change a little each day on the bush, while weather affects withering and fermentation.
