Synopsis "the complete poems of kenneth rexroth"

The Complete Poems of Kenneth Rexroth assembles all of his published longer and shorter poems, and includes a never-before-published selection of his earliest work. Rexroth's poems of nature and protest are remarkable for their erudition and biting social and political commentary; his love poems justly celebrated for their eroticism and depth of feeling.The cloth edition was one of the most widely reviewed poetry titles in 2003: "Scholars and critics who endeavor to discuss mid-20th century American poetry responsibly ignore Rexroth at their peril."--Los Angeles Times Book Review, cover feature and selected as a Book of the Year"Rexroth is probably best known as the 'Father of the Beat Generation.' These poems reveal that great beauty lies beyond that cliché."--NPR's All Things Considered"Rexroth's prodigious breadth of learning, his hungry attention to the natural world, his contempt for warmongering and his profound, occasionally overlapping love of women are all on flourishing display."--The San Francisco Chronicle"Rexroth never mistook his poetry for a product, and he could present ideas and images in an urgent, memorable and eloquent way."--The Nation"Rexroth is one of the most readable and rewarding 20th-century American poets."--BooklistKenneth Rexroth (1905-1982) was one of the world's great literary minds. In addition to being a poet, translator, essayist and teacher, he helped found the San Francisco Poetry Center and influenced generations of readers with his Classics Revisited series.
