The Ordeal of Robert Frost: THE POET AND HIS POETICS
by Mark Richardson, Carolyn Richardson
Category: Literary Criticism

Through close readings of Frost's poetry and often ignored prose, Mark Richardson argues that Frost's debates with Van Wyck Brooks, Malcolm Cowley, and H. L. Mencken informed his poetics and his poetic style just as much as did his deep identification with earlier writers like Emerson and William James.
