Monday Meme: Love & Literature

Our Monday Meme comes from poet Eileen Myles. Thanks in large part to her relationship with Transparent creator Jill Soloway, Myles has experienced a bit of a resurgence as of late.  A  new collection of poems as well as a reissue her coming of age novel Chelsea Girls were published last year by HarperCollins and she has been profiled by major publications. The truth is, however, Myles has been a poetry trailblazer, openly writing about love and sexuality for nearly four decades. As book lovers and lovers of love itself, the sentiment in this quote is something we believe in!
