A Common Strangeness: Contemporary Poetry, Cross-cultural Encounter, Comparative Literature 
Jacob,
thanks for leaving a message for me on the GSA website and for taking an interest in my ‘Globalization of Strangeness’ book. I have not had the chance to read you book yet but I am certainly keen to have a look at it. it does seem that there could well be overlap between our approaches.
Best wishes,
Chris
