Synopsis
Hailed by Harold Bloom as "America’s greatest living poet," John Ashbery has won every major American literary award for his poetry, including the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, the Griffin Poetry Prize, and the National Book Critics Circle Award. A beloved and gifted artist, Ashbery takes his place beside Whitman, Dickinson, Stevens, and Hart Crane in the canon of great American poets. With Quick Question, a new collection of poems published in time for his 85th birthday, John Ashbery proves that his creative power has only grown stronger with age.

À propos de l?auteur
John Ashbery was born in Rochester, New York, in 1927. He wrote more than twenty books of poetry, including Quick Question; Planisphere; Notes from the Air; A Worldly Country; Where Shall I Wander; and Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror, which received the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the National Book Award. The winner of many prizes and awards, both nationally and internationally, he received the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters from the National Book Foundation in 2011 and a National Humanities Medal, presented by President Obama at the White House, in 2012. Ashbery died in September 2017 at the age of ninety.
À propos de la quatrième de couverture
For over 50 years John Ashbery has been one of America's most innovative and influential poets. Like Yeats and Milosz, Ashbery is that rare poet whose work continues to improve as he ages. Now at 85, he writes with the boldness and vision of a poet half his age. Honed by experience and inexhaustibly creative, these never before published poems certify that Ashbery's artistic flame has continued to burn late into his life.

Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Pristine, clean & tight (unread) copy in NEW condition. The late Harold Bloom said, "No one writing poems in the English language is likelier than Ashbery to survive the severe judgments of time. He is joining that American sequence that includes Whitman, Dickinson, Stevens, and Hart Crane." Booklist notes: "Ashbery is covertly prophetic in his forecasts of new forms of crisis and folly---his always surprising, frolicking, knowing, and compassionate poems [channel] the increasingly discordant, digitized soundtrack of our lives. [This is] vital Ashbery; [he is] nimble, funny, philosophical, and artistically adventurous in this zesty and substantial collection." Is your attention to this worth it? Most definitely & it's quite presentable into the bargain. N° de réf. du vendeur RUB549
