Title: Male subjectivity and poetic form in "new American" poetry
Description: "Male Subjectivity and Poetic Form in "New American" Poetry examines the sometimes fraught connections between poets associated with the New American poetry of Donald Allen's anthology and the resulting formal choices these poets made in their work. Focusing in particular on pairings of writers within the larger grouping of poets, this books suggests how literary partnerships became pivotal to the writing that got done, especially at early stages in these poets' careers. "No one listens to poetry," Jack Spicer famously wrote. This book shows how a particular group of poets did listen to each other and what they made of what they heard"--Provided by publisher.
