The Letters of Robert Duncan and Denise Levertov

This volume presents the complete correspondence between two of the most important and influential American poets of the postwar period. The almost 500 letters range widely over the poetry scene and the issues that made the period so lively and productive. But what gives the exchange its special personal and literary resonance is the sense of spiritual affinity and shared conviction about the power of the visionary imagination. Duncan and Levertov explore these matters in rich detail until, under the stress of dealing with the Vietnam War in poetry, they discover deep-seated differences in the religious and ethical convictions underlying their politics and poetic stance. The issues that drew them together and those that drove them apart create a powerful personal drama with far-reaching historical and cultural significance. The editors have provided a critical Introduction, full notes, a chronology, and a glossary of names.

Poetry. Lyman Gilmore's biography of Joel Oppenheimer, Don't Touch the Poet, says Robert Bertholf, "made me realize again how much I loved Joel, and how much fun I had being around him." REMEMBERING JOEL OPPENHEIMER is in turn the record of a deep personal friendship as well as a study of the work of one of the major Black Mountain poets. Robert J Bertholf edited Oppenheimer's Collected Later Poems. He is also the editor of, among others, Selected Poems of Robert Duncan, From This Condensery (selected poems of Lorine Neidecker), A Great Admiration H.D./Robert Duncan Correspondence 1950-1961, and (with David Landrey), a volume of works by Oppenheimer, Drawing from Life.. Formerly curator for the Poetry/Rare Books Collection at the State University of New York at Buffalo, Bertholf is currently the Charles D Abbott Scholar-In-Residence at that university.
