Still looking at Le Fanu, though more for research than pleasure.
With the FRUITFULNESS coupon:
John Clare
W.B. Yeats
John Donne
Pity there's no John Webster, Thomas Love Peacock, William Alabaster, Dorothy Wordsworth, Thomas Lovell Beddoes or George Darley.
Edit: And no Thomas De Quincey! I so wanted to read his book on style again.
I'm mystified as to how they can include Yeats legally.

Why buy the Bierce, when we have his fictional works—though not his essays (yet)—
here on MR, uploaded by your most humble colleague?
What mystifies you about Yeats’ appearance on Delphi Classics? He died in 1939 and is PD almost everywhere (outside the U.S.).
