Time Is a Toy: The Selected Poems of Michael Benedikt
Angebote / Angebote:
Michael Benedikt (1935-2007), who has been occasionally grouped with the New York School poets, published five books of poetry in his lifetime, and edited several anthologies, including the influential "The Prose Poem" (1976) and "The Poetry of Surrealism" (1974). This collection brings together for the first time work from all five of those long out-of-print volumes, along with work from his five unpublished manuscripts, which were nearly destroyed after his death. Finally, this once widely published and influential voice is back in print, and a fuller understanding of the development of American surrealism and the prose poem in the 1960s and 1970s is possible. A lifelong New Yorker, Benedikt was at various times an associate editor with "Art News" and "Art International, " managing editor of "Locus Solus, " and poetry editor of the "Paris Review." Benedikt also taught at institutions such as Sarah Lawrence, Bennington, Vassar, and Boston University.
