  • Selected correspondence of John Wieners and Charles Olson

Description

"But Wieners' letters to Olson from that time that gave rise to his early love poems and vatic apostrophes also show him continuing the study he began at Black Mountain. In one letter, he describes spending the day in the New York Public Library, an experience which unfolds into an intricate web of connections with Sumerian history..., Egyptian and Tinguian mythology, and the patterns of jewels in the windows at Tiffany's."--Introduction.
