Our Page 1 Arts Section review of Mila Krozwyt’s art/poetry volume Towards An Emotional Cartesianism: A Hyponym Of Presuppositive Space (Pandit Books, 2015) requires correction based on our critic’s belated realization that Pandit’s shipping box was inadvertently mailed without the book and supplementary self-blinding device. Accordingly, our comments on the project’s “prorogued density of ideas,” and its “crunchy, almost playful teasing of the anti-Formalist program” should be considered commentary upon approximately 80 Styrofoam packing peanuts and a spider.
Our Jan 19th review of What Light Through Yonder Kneecap Breaks: A Hitman’s Diary (264752 Books, 2016) inadvertently mentioned the author’s new job, vehicle type, home town, and distinctive post-relocation wig, none of which are part of the book. We apologize to Mr. Skullarzo/O’Leary’s remaining family.
Our reviewer regrets describing the 2017 Fishing Hole Calendar as “chock full of errors.” She was thinking of a different calendar from several years ago.
The “connotative, if coy” line quoted by our reviewer from Jill Hunklestern’s novel The Summer I Became a Woman, (Hunklestern Press, 2017), i.e.,“We are carblestad on the mimfers. But Tr’o! Have ye on the wammble?” was not in fact in the book, but in a dream he had after reading it on a small unsteady boat.
In a recent overview of twelve books dealing with London’s infamous 1881-1891 Whitechapel Murders, our reviewer regrets stating her conclusion that Jack The Ripper was actually the little old man frequently biffed across the noggin on BBC1’s The Benny Hill Show. We apologize to actor Jack “Slap-Head” White and his heirs.
As our lawyers have noted and our editors confirm, nothing in our year-end essay on popular children’s books later used as the bases for animated TV series should be construed as advocating the forcible overthrow of the government of the United States.
In last week’s article on anagrams we misspelled the anagram of anagram as mangara. This should have read gaaarmn.
New Zealand is not in North East Pakistan.
SORB regrets assigning our review of Sheila and Roderick Pinweather’s NonAllegiant: The Creation Of Modernism from Seurat to Schoenberg to Dandy, The Sneering Poo-Rag Hand Puppet. A revised review will be found in a forthcoming issue.
