商品簡介
The poems of James Schuyler, John Ashbery, and Frank O'Hara are the subject of this volume. The roots of the authors in earlier poets and in the famous city where they write are uncovered in Ward's own quite delectable prose, as he shows us the long history of New York as inspiration and traces the themes and techniques of the poets' work. This second edition includes a new chapter on contemporary developments, including the six new books of poems by Ashbery and O'Hara's views on identity politics. Ward teaches English at the U. of Dundee in Scotland. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
