ROUSE, Blair

After half a century of writing some of the most remarkable poems of love and solitude, prophetic revolt and philosophical contemplation in modern literature, Kenneth Rexroth has emerged, I believe, as one of America's wisest living poets. I have written this book to put in order my thoughts concerning the poet who, more than any other, has helped me understand poetry as communion, communication of vision, and communal sacrament.
