I’m a freelance writer and editor, based in London, but also a keen anthologist.
I’ve put together an anthology of verse inspired by 400 years of poetry on tobacco. It includes work by Keats, Kipling, Rimbaud, Chesterton, Dickinson, etc., and the book is split into sections on snuff, cigars, cigarettes, tobacco itself and, of course, pipes. There’s quite a transatlantic feel to the contents, but there are other nationalities, apart from British and Americans. Clive James, the Australian writer, Fernando Pessoa and Alvaro de Campos, amongst others.
Now I believe that the Dutch are big Anglophiles as well as been big smokers, although most people in the UK tend to think that’s mainly to do with another plant species! Just wondering if a book, in English, would sell over in the Netherlands.
Many thanks.
