About this title

Synopsis

Frankly―H. Miller was defended by me only because he spoke against the War, and I think that was the main reason for his fame. Now―I do not believe, what with Palmistry, Chirography, Phrenology, and the Great Cryptogram, he will survive the retooling period. I honestly think he is the most insufferable snob I have ever met―but all reformed pandhandlers are like that.… in a letter from Kenneth Rexroth to James Laughlin

Correspondence between author Rexroth, a "presiding figure of the San Francisco Renaissance," and publisher Laughlin, spanning forty years. Introduction, notes on the text, select bibliography, index. Errata sheet laid in.

From the Back Cover

The letters in this volume capture the many moods of Kenneth Rexroth. They also provide a running commentary on writers outside Rexroth's San Francisco orbit, such notables as T. S. Eliot, Dylan Thomas D. H. Lawrence, and Herbert Read.
