Description
The essays in this book focus attention on the vibrant New York poetry scene of the 1960s and 70s, on the poets who came after what is now known as the New York School. A range of writers and scholars examine the cultural, sociological and historical contexts of this wildly diverse group of poets.
Reviews / Votes
Kane's volume is the first to tackle the period in New York's downtown literary history most closely tied to the group of poets known as the 'Second Generation New York School'... [It] is a must-have for historians of American poetry in the 20th century. -- Publishers WeeklyMore details
