I half wonder whether this isn't a ploy to offend great scads of people enough that they will make a point of quoting Louis Zukofsky on their blogs, etc., thereby generating enough new interest in his work to cause actual sales of his actual books.
If only I could believe that - it would be a charming use of irony.
