"A reason to like chapbooks is that they are made by people who really find writing, especially poetry, more important than income and fame. Ironically, early Ezra Pound chapbooks are impossibly expensive now. But here’s an image I often think I see: a man or a woman bent over a pile of little half-made booklets, a needle and thread in his or her hand, a frowning forehead and smiling lips."
