After working in the 40s and 50s as an editor for the New Yorker, a film critic for Time and a Hollywood screenwriter, Robert Lax left the United States for permanent residence abroad, where for 35 years he has written the minimalist poetry that has won him acclaim among an ever-widening circle of artists and writers around the world.

Book excerpt: "In 1988, at the age of fifty, Diana Wakoski selected the poems in Emerald Ice from her first sixteen books of poetry. Here, returned to print at last, are all the famous (and infamous) lyrics, series, and narratives that established Wakoski as a mythologizer of sex and self, a fierce free-verse imagist, and one of the most important and controversial poets to come out of California in the 1960s."

Download or read book Love Had a Compass written by Robert Lax and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Among America's greatest poets, a true minimalist who can weave awesome poems from remarkably few words." -Richard Kostelanetz, New York Times Book Review Every generation of poets seems to harbor its own hidden genius, one whose stature and brilliance come to light after his talent has already been achieved and exercised. The same drama of obscurity and nuance that attended the discovery of Emily Dickinson and Wallace Stevens is suggested by the career of Robert Lax. An expatriate American whose work to date — more than forty books — has been published mostly in Europe, this 85-year-old poet built a following in the U.S. among figures as widespread as Mark Van Doren, e. e. cummings, Jack Kerouac, and Sun Ra. The works in Love Had a Compass represent every stage of Lax's development as a poet, from his early years in the 1940s as a staff writer for The New Yorker to his present life on the Greek Island of Patmos. An inveterate wanderer, Lax's own sense of himself as both exile and pilgrim is carefully evoked in his prose journals and informs the pages of the Marseille Diaries, published here for the first time. Together with the poems, they provide the best portrait available to date of one of the most striking and original poets of our age.

Download or read book Meadowlands written by Louise Gluck and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature In an astonishing book-length sequence, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Louise Gluck interweaves the dissolution of a contemporary marriage with the story of The Odyssey. Here is Penelope stubbornly weaving, elevating the act of waiting into an act of will; here, too, is a worldly Circe, a divided Odysseus, and a shrewd adolescent Telemachus. Through these classical figures, Meadowlands explores such timeless themes as the endless negotiation of family life, the cruelty that intimacy enables, and the frustrating trivia of the everyday. Gluck discovers in contemporary life the same quandary that lies at the heart of The Odyssey: the "unanswerable/affliction of the human heart: how to divide/the world's beauty into acceptable/and unacceptable loves."

Book excerpt: For this volume, originally published in cloth in 1961, William Carlos Williams collected, and revised, four full-length plays and the libretto of an opera on George Washington.

Book excerpt: Poetry. Winner of the 2011 Norma Farber First Book Award from the Poetry Society of America. John Beer's first collection, THE WASTE LAND AND OTHER POEMS, employs the wit of a philosopher and the ear of a poet to stage ways of reading that are political, personal, and theoretical. The speaker of these poems also brings humor to the dissecting table, to prod the legacies of great works of the imagination while balancing irony and affection.

This book was released on 1991-09-17 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Download or read book The ABCs of Robert Lax written by Robert Lax and published by Small Press United. This book was released on 1999 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Essays. Interviews. Letters. "He's good, isn't he!," commented Samuel Beckett, and little else need be said of Robert Lax. The ABCs of Robert Lax assembles a truly panoramic array of essays on Lax's writings; with extensive interviews, examples of his correspondence and key texts from his previously unpublished poems, prose and autobiographical reflections, this book provides both text and context. Written in relative isolation on the islands of Kalymnos and Patmos, Lax's poetry has been consistently championed by such writers as Thomas Merton, Mark Van Voren, Susan Howe and Denise Levertov, and by artists, musicians and filmmakers. "all things bade him, all things invited him to join" (from "Tractatus VI"); The ABCs of Robert Lax bids us, invites us into the vivid experimental world of a poet who is, in Jack Kerouac's words, "a Pilgrim in search of beautiful Innocence, writing lovingly, finding it, simply, in his own way."
