LACTATORY SCHOOL OF CRITICISM.

Examples and counter examples:

Apollinaire: Polish? Wrote poetry in French.

Beckett: Wrote texts of various genres in French.

Gimferrer: Began writing poetry in Spanish, then switched back to his native language (Catalan), deploying a version of lactatory fallacy.

Brodsky. Wrote poetry in English. (This example confirms lactatory hypothesis, for me, because I think his poetry in English sucks)

Conrad / Nabokov. Not "poets." How does lactation effect prose writers?

Kerouac. Native language is Quebocois French.
