Timeless: a collection of poetry & prose (The Road I Tread) - Steven Singleton
"I seemed to have sensed also from an early age that some of my experiences as a reader would change me more as a person than would many an event in the world where I sat and read. "
Gerald Murnane, Tamarisk Row
... appears to be a contemporary:Timeless is a freshman collection of twenty-five years of poetry. Covering a range of subjects, from light hearted early mornings and magical trips to deeper and questioning moments of doubt, it follows the authors downfalls and triumphs as he navigated the past quarter century. Dive in, and enjoy the moments that helped shape the author into the man he is and the Hopes he looks to leave behind.Steven Singleton

Tks. I read her first bio: The Life of Charlotte Brontë (Illustrated Edition): Delightful Biography of the Author of Jane Eyre by One of Her Closest Friends- by Elisabeth Gaskell. Interesting bio, though the friendship seems to have been not so close. Can be found as pdf on the net.

Re Kleist: Well observed, tailor. Itīs a different kind of comedy than the ones one watches on the telly. The theme in itself is not comic, but Adam, as a rather clumsy devil is a comic figure and so is Marthe, with her jug. And all ends well for the good people as is expected in a comedy.
