    “You can win a girl with a poem, but you can’t keep a girl with a poem. Not even a poetry movement.”

    Even your small town library ought to have Baudelaire, which counts as getting started on 2666 since one of his lines (idiosyncratically translated?) is the epigraph for that one. “An oasis of horror in a desert of boredom.” From The Voyage.
