Reading Tips

Charles Deemer has referenced Ezra Pound's ABC of Reading a couple of times at his blog recently.  I don't think he'll object too much if I go ahead and post this link to a pdf of the book.

For my part, I recommend this collection of essays if you're going to delve a little deeper into Pound.  Before selling my library to make rent one sad month years ago, I read from it often.  Not all of Pound is as accessible (to me) as this work, and I think his magnificent essay "How to Read" is in this collection.

Enjoy!
