Description

The first book devoted to the work of the Objectivist Poets: Louis Zukofsky, George Oppen, Charles Reznikoff, Carl Rakosi, Lorine Niedecker. Though not a historical study, Heller explores the modernist roots of the Objectivist tradition and illuminates the meaning and importance of these poets not only for writers and scholars but for poetry itself as significant knowledge of our world.
