Where I heard about it
- A reply to @typesfast — in the thread under his question “What’s the best history book you’ve read?” (June 2025) — a poetry collection offered in a history thread, presumably as a primary document of its moment.
Connections
- What’s the best history book… (tweet) — the saved thread this recommendation came from.
- William Blake · Literature · Religion — where this sits in the corpus.
