that formative books meme

[gwynnega]

A bit late to the party, but here is my list of formative books. Some books I searched for weren't available (including works by Wanda Coleman, Lyn Lifshin, and Jan Clausen). At first I tried to stick to childhood/adolescence, but ended up including books I got into as late as my early (or mid) thirties. Which, for me, is still awhile ago! [ETA: Blake! I forgot William Blake, OMG.]

[ETA 2: And Mary Poppins!]

A bit late to the party, but here is my list of formative books.

This is a great list! 45 of 100, less than any of my other matches so far. Jennifer, Hecate, Macbeth, William McKinley, and Me, Elizabeth!

Thank you! Jennifer, Hecate, Macbeth, William McKinley, and Me, Elizabeth was so important to me as a kid.
