Description
In this volume, Schulman, a poet and critic herself, reviews the poetry of Marianne Moore. Moore, she says, treated her subject in totality, and even involved the reader. Her poems, with their precise, compact renderings of objects and animals, are concerned with courage, patience, tenacity, and integrity in a disintegrating world. Schulman convincingly demonstrates, that the largeness of Moore's concerns is at the heart of her poetry. ISBN 0-252-01270-4: $17.95.
