What Olga Says: “I read William Blake’s poetry in my youth. For me, he is a subversive, radical, and extraordinarily original poet. In my neighbourhood, there were as many as three translators of Blake, so we had plenty to talk about — something I describe in my book [Drive Your Plow Over The Bones Of The Dead].”
What They Say: “Best known in his time as a painter and engraver, William Blake is now known as a major visionary poet whose expansive style influenced 20th-century writers and musicians as varied as T.S. Eliot, Allen Ginsberg, and Bob Dylan” — The Poetry Foundation
