An extended sequence of poems on the theme of the field, this volume is in reality a single poem, a meditation upon space and our use of it, of what is discovered in the margins and in fallow places, and how we find our way in and out of it. It is Robert Kusch's first full-length volume, and those of us who know him through haiku will recognize the same precision of language, subtletly of emotion, and telling imagery as he exhibits in his work in that genre. --Red Moon Press.
At a time when Theodore Roethke was finding his poetic voice, he called William Carlos Williams "my toughest mentor." This study examines the discussion about poetry that lives in their correspondence and the poems they sent to each other between 1940-48. From special collections at Yale University and the University of Washington, Robert Kusch has arranged the letters in sequence, and he approaches them both as cultural critic and reader-respondent.

The book has pointed, unconventional advice for teachers of creative writing and for those who are learning the art.
