❖ 1954「詩を書く少年」 しをかくしょうねん continued

Thoughts*

Random quote: "After the [literary] pioneers always come the crank turners, the little gray people who take the machines others have built and just turn the crank, and little pellets of metafiction come out the other end […] I think the crank-turners replace the critic as the real angel of death as far as literary movements are concerned, now." — David Foster Wallace
