A propos de cet article

Substantial letters discussing the publication of his work in the UK - notably the paucity of it - in response to to inquiries whether he has anything available for publication: "The only two books of mine ever published in England, Cape's `Selected Poems' and Penguin's selection as part of the Modern Poets series, have been out of print for years. Carcanet has recently agreed to bring out `Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror' sometime next spring. According to Georges Borchardt, my literary agent here, Richard Scott Simon, his London associate, tried all the major publishers in London, unsuccessfully, before going to Carcanet. However, since the contract was signed, Tom Maschler of Cape, and now you, have expressed interest. So you see, my relations with the English publishing world are somewhat confusing." Letters by Asbery appear to be uncommon. With two carbons of incoming letters and in excellent condition.
