Best Thought, Worst Thought: On Art, Sex, Work and Death by Don Paterson
3.0
§
Aphorisms are truly a strange genre - making everything seem truer in their brevity, yet at the same time more banal.

The poets life is apparently a cliché of struggling with words, thoughts of art, death and a bohemian sex life, and literary jealousy.
§
This does not make it bad, just strangely familiar. As if you've read it all before. But maybe better phrased.
