His "Complete Short Poetry" is also available from Johns Hopkins.
Reviews / Votes
"He is a master of the allusive word collage wed to the cadence of music and the rhythms of the sounds themselves."'The Reader's Review' "Zukofsky's 'art', in this work, is without equal."--Robert Creeley, 'New York Times' "The most hermetic poem in English, which they will still be elucidating in the 22nd century."--Hugh Kenner, 'New York Times'More details
