B Day (not to be confused with birthday or bidet)
B authors (not to be confused with Bea Arthur) already in the Library include Tom Baird, Amiri Baraka, David Baratier, Charles Baudelaire, Shaindel Beers, Irving Berlin, William Blake, Dianne Borsenik, Bree, Adam Brodsky, Irene Brodsky, Emily Brontë, Christina Brooks, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Robert Browning, Miles Budimir, and Lord Byron. The Bhagavad Gita and excerpts from the Bible are also there. I added a couple more Byron works this morning, and eventually I'd like to add more by all the above authors, as well as works by Robbie Burns, Basho, Charles Bukowski, Robert Bly and Bob Henry Baber. If you have any other recommended Bs buzzing around in your head, please pollinate the comments below with them.
Happy B reading!





Burroughs, Borsenick, Brooks? BBKing?

Great suggestions, Charles - and much appreciated. Because most of those authors' works are still under copyright, I'll have to seek permission - but I hope to include as many of them as possible in future go-rounds.

there's the great philosophers such as Yogi Bear's Boo Boo and Quick Draw McGraw's Baba Louie.

Stephen Vincent Benét, Ambrose Bierce, Rupert Brooke, Basho, Beowolf (as a selection) But maybe you already did that... and possibly Bhartrihari, a sanskrit poet from the 6 century.
