Viral rejection letter from 1928 calls author's poem 'awful'
A rejection letter by Australian publisher Angus and Robertson to poet Frederick Charles Meyer in 1928 has gone viral. The letter calls his work "simply awful," adding, "We hate no rival publisher sufficiently to ask you to inflict them on him." Interestingly, Meyer's works were later published in books including 'Pearls of the Blue Mountains of Australia' (1929).
