Word Play Place: Essays on the Poetry of John Matthias

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Word Play Place is the first sustained treatment of the poetry of John Matthias, who stands outside the mainstream of American poetry and is guided by an aesthetic that has not been easy to define. These twelve contributors and twelve points of view will permit readers to approach the ambition, the richness, and the strangeness of Matthias's work with awareness and understanding.

FROM THE CRITICS

Booknews

Essays on the work of this significant American poet treat his career from its beginnings under the tutelage of John Berryman and Yvor Winters through its engagement with modern and postmodern poetics. These twelves points of view will permit readers to approach the ambition, the richness, and the strangeness of his work with awareness and understanding. No index. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
