Presumed First Impression thus, but unstated. Trade Paperback. Available again in a revised reissue, AWASH WITH ROSES, Patchen's classic collection of 100 love poems, includes a biographical introduction of Kenneth and Miriam Patchen by the writer's biographer Larry Smith. Kenneth Patchen wrote fiction and poetry, did poetry-poems, poetry-jazz, and poems-and-drawings. He was a key figure in the Greenwich Village scene of the 1930's and 1940's, then active in the pre-Beat period of the West Coast. His love poems are lasting testimonies of devotion to his loved one and to the world. An excellent collection of love poetry by one of the greatest American poets. This volume, which is accompanied by a concise and compelling introduction, reveals the best of Patchen: his irrepressible sense of wonder, his ability to see things anew, his skill at waking us up to the moment, and his life-long love for the beautiful and intelligent woman in his life, Miriam Patchen. Since much of Patchen's work is now out of print, this collection is a rare opportunity to explore this acclaimed poet's writing which one hopes is just now beginning a resurgence. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 164 pages.
