that formative books meme

A bit late to the party, but here is my list of formative books. Some books I searched for weren't available (including works by Wanda Coleman, Lyn Lifshin, and Jan Clausen). At first I tried to stick to childhood/adolescence, but ended up including books I got into as late as my early (or mid) thirties. Which, for me, is still awhile ago! [ETA: Blake! I forgot William Blake, OMG.]

[ETA 2: And Mary Poppins!]

The last owl

So, this one is a little ornament to hang up.

The pattern is Hootzie Humbug* from Just Nan. DMC and Gentle Arts cotton floss on linen with some sparkly seed beads. It's about 2½" tall. Photos )

*Unbearably twee, I know, but I just embroider 'em. Humbug refers to the shape, apparently.
