Talk:W. R. Moses

Not Moses' Collected but Robinson's?
I'm pretty sure he's talking about liberating a copy of Robinson's Collected Poems, not Moses' but I've reached my Google reading limit for this work so I can't scroll back to check. Anyone else able to verify? — Iadmc  ♫ talk 00:43, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

 * The plain meaning is that Ander Monson wrote of having "liberated" a copy of Moses' Collected Poems, not of Robinson's Collected Poems, he had already found an never-read review copy of Robinson's on his own bookshelf. I copied the text into the article. The problem is that although I first heard of Moses only yesterday, I have certainly read a lot about him and I do not see that a book of his "Collected Poems" was ever published.  It may be a case of Monson's wording having misled me.  Or, since this is the small college town where Moses spent most of his life teaching, the library could easily have had 2 copies of Moses's collected poems printed and bound by Moses' students or colleagues.  I have certainly seen such books, they were not uncommon even in the pre-computer era. Just the sort of thing that Monson would have stolen.E.M.Gregory (talk) 11:45, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
 * OK. The wording of Monson's book certainly confused me but your explanation is probably correct. Thanks — Iadmc  ♫ talk 22:44, 17 January 2017 (UTC)
