Great Regulars: Consider Liz Waldner's recent collection,

"Trust." First, we're presented with epigraphs from Lewis Carroll and Karl Marx that are presumably meant to cover the book as a whole; then we have an epigraph from Samuel Johnson that's meant to apply to Section 1; and finally, we have an epigraph from Plato's "Symposium" in the first poem. So that's four writers we've encountered before we've read one line from the author.
