Daniel Katz's superb new study of Jack Spicer's poetry surveys and synthesizes pioneering work of earlier critics, even as it advances his own distinctive views about, for example, Spicer's development of epistolary and serial forms. Katz avoids the temptation to mask or resolve the contradictory nature of Spicer's poetics, thereby yielding a poet of greater scope and complexity. Acutely intelligent and elegantly written, Katz's book will be essential reading for the many readers discovering Spicer's poetry for the first time and for those aiming to advance the leading edge of Spicer studies.--Daniel Tiffany, University of Southern California
This brilliant study of Jack Spicer's poetry will be an essential companion for anyone reading his poems. Particularly impressive is the way Daniel Katz's incisive close readings of the poems always respect both the intelligibility and the opacity of Spicer's inventiveness. Katz convincingly demonstrates that Spicer's intelligence, passion, dialogues with other poets, and questionings of the aesthetic make him a crucial modern American poet.--Peter Middleton, University of Southampton
Katz's book is thorough, thoughtful and brilliantly argued.--Simon Smith"New Statesman" (01/01/0001)
