Editorial Reviews

"Creeley has shaped his own audience. The much imitated, often diluted minimalism, the compression of emotion into verse in which scarcely a syllable is wasted, has decisively marked a generation of poets."

Voice Literary Supplement

An illuminating, interactive biographical essay culled from conversations between Creeley and Clark--together with Creeley's own "Autobiography" (1990), a talk he gave on poetry and "the commonplace" at New College of California (1991), and many personal photographs of himself and family and friends.
