Condition: FINE. First printing. The first biography of this important American poet, called by Timothy Leary "the father of modern poetry" who grew up in Worcester, Massachusetts and spent his summers in the fishing city of Gloucester, and where he retreated to in 1957 to concentrate on his poetry. Robert Hass commented that "T…om Clark's 'Charles Olson' is brilliant story-telling. The poet who cuts such a large figure in the American avant garde in the fifties and sixties is unexpectedly and fully alive in Clark's prose with his huge ambitions and fears and sexual confusion." Notes, index. xi, 403 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.
