Surely you jest. Having said that, one of my favorite books of poetry is a slim volume of Byron, beutifully bound and set, with the stamp of "W.H Smith, English Bookseller, Paris" on the inner cover, and inscribed "To Enid from Winifred, Jan. 11th, 1906" in a very fine hand indeed. It is favored for the packaging, not the content. Maybe I should try again; I found the verse occasionally amusing but generally forgettable. -- Cheers, Tim Bray (ongoing fragmented essay: http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/)
