I was wondering the same thing. Where can Tristan Gylberd's poetry be found?

I share several things in common with Mr. Gylberd. I was born in Texas in the mid-50s. I have written poetry and am an educator. I may not be a critic, but am often noted for being critical. And I am obscure, and while I may not be often quoted, I quote others quite a bit. Having met Herr Gylberd on several occasions, I am always struck by how reclusive he is.

I would have to agree with Mr. House that Mr. Gylberd is quite the solitary soul. I had no idea he showed up in Piper and Swindol books? Have you heard from him lately?
