About this title

Synopsis

Letters written during the spring and summer of 1951 convey the artistic concerns of the two writers and share commentary on their poems and essays in progress.

Review

From the editor: Each man allowed the other his head, took what came, and found of interest (or at least discussible) each other's preoccupations. Sometimes a dialogue ensued, other times one generously allowed himself to be used as a sounding board for the other's necessities. Together they hammered out a poetics -- both the specialized craft of the wordsmith, but also the larger issue of how a man of language must live in the world. --George F. Butterick
