Description

This study of 20th-century American poet George Oppen promises to become a key resource for those interested not only in Oppen himself, but in the history of literary modernism. Drawing extensively on largely unpublished papers and presenting material that has not yet appeared in print, Peter Nicholls gives a detailed account of Oppen's life and work, enriched by close readings of many of his poems.
