I think that's one of my auntie Toinette's books there - she edited Kavanagh's Collected Poems iirc

Or maybe Selected?
No, nvm that's not hers. Ignore me!
I was just about to go back to the book shelf and check!
Pay no attention to my posts!

*escapes*
She lectured me in college!
Oh no, was she horrible to you?
No! She wasn't the warmest fluffiest lecturer but I never had any issue with her! I don't think I was in any of her tutorials so I didn't have a chance to get on the wrong side of her.
Phew! She was an excellent auntie and sister to my mum but warm and fluffy wouldn't have been a big thing for her!!
Very smart lady, passionate and knowledgeable about her subject.
😊❤️
What year (if not too personal)? In case we were there around the same time…
1992-1996.
We *just* missed each other - and you are younger than me by about 4 years 😂
I was there from 1998–2002. Not studying English though
I’m going to assume you were a mature student and not that I’m crumblingly older than you 😂 What did you study?
I was 19 in first year, very mature! Law!
A lot more purposeful than single honour English! Your Aunt gave a lecture in my first year that might well count as formative/inspirational. Among other things, she gave me the tools to reverse-engineer a grasp of history (had only ever been taught to me as lists of dates I could never remember).
Nice to be younger than someone,it's happening less often 😂
