Recenzje

'I predict Swift studies are going show a major up-tick, owing to these new volumes. Many young people with access to research libraries are going to find their way to the Dean by this route, and they're going to learn a lot along the way. So I say hats off to the entire editorial staff of Struldbruggs at Luggnagg University, for their unfathomable erudition and tireless labor. Depend on it, Sir, this Swift is going to last a hundred years.' Anthony Madrid, RHINO Poetry
