The Autobiography of William Carlos Williams

Williams, William Carlos

Beginning, 'I was an innocent child and have remained so to this day. Only yesterday, reading Chapman's 'The Iliad of Homer', did I realize for the first time that the derivation of the adjective venereal is from Venus! And I have been a physician practicing medicine for the past forty years. I was stunned!.'
