Item description from seller

- An unstamped 3-1/2 inch high by 5-1/2 inch wide color picture postcard is addressed to Gary Wickie in Simic's hand with 45 words penned in blue ink in the message section. Simic has written his address above the printed heading "Greetings From Bow Lake, N.H." Signed "Best, Charles Simic". Fine. Simic thanks Gary Wickie, editor at Workingman's Press, for letting him read Cynthia Genser's book "Club 82" [published by the press in 1979]. "It's first rate work and incredibly interesting. Unfortunately, I don't write blurbs - ever. If I did all my friends and ex-students would get after me. I'd do nothing else." Simic's home in Strafford, New Hampshire was on the shore of Bow Lake which is pictured on the postcard.Charles Simic [b. 1938] is a Serbian-American poet who was co-poetry editor of the Paris Review. He received the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1990 for "The World Doesn't End" and was a finalist for the prize in 1986 and 1987. He was appointed the fifteenth Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress in 2007.
