Catherine Seton's Reading Recommendations

Look for poems from Catherine Seton in our upcoming Summer 2018 Poetry Issue!

Three books of reference are my secret sauce: Jerome Irving Rodale’s The Synonym Finder, 1978; from the Editors of Reader’s Digest, Reader’s Digest Illustrated Reverse Dictionary: Find the Words at the Tip of Your Tongue, 1990; and Theodore M. Bernstein’s Bernstein’s Reverse Dictionary, 2nd Edition, 1988. All are available at online used book sites.

For sheer musical delight, I turn to the joyful word-play of Atsuro Riley’s Romey’s Order.
