Seeing the latest posts to the Forum led me to read for the first time this entire thread. Although I have arrived quite late to the party, I cannot help making the following comment.
Jim Rockhill:
Quote:Pace Pierre Comtois, any extensive reading in weird fiction shows that honors in supernatural literature are due on almost equal basis between the genders.
Although, of course, such "honors" will always be apportioned according to personal taste, I would love to see some evidence for this extraordinary assertion. I have read "extensively in weird fiction", and I could not possibly disagree more.
By the way, would anyone else who is proficient in that evil language known as French ;-) care to comment on the quality of CAS's translations of Baudelaire? My view is that, although they are often quite excellent CAS poems, they are mostly travesties of M. Charles-Pierre.
