"Robert Creeley is one of the most celebrated and influential of the postwar American poets. His Selected Letters, covering the years 1945-2005 are a foundational document in the recent history of North American letters. Through his engagements with mentors such as William Carlos Williams and Ezra Pound; peers such as Charles Olson, Robert Duncan, Denise Levertov, Allen Ginsberg, and Jack Kerouac and mentees such as Charles Bernstein, Anselm Berrigan, Ed Dorn, Susan Howe, and Tom Raworth, Creeley helped forge a new poetry that re-imagined writing for his and subsequent generations. A stylist of the highest order, Creeley's letters carry the clear mark of consummate literary artistry and document the life, work, and times of one of our greatest writers"--

When Robert Creeley died in March 2005, he was working on what was to be his final book of poetry. In addition to more than thirty new poems, many touching on the twin themes of memory and presence, this moving collection includes the text of the last paper Creeley gave--an essay exploring the late verse of Walt Whitman. Together, the essay and the poems are a retrospective on aging and the resilience of memory that includes tender elegies to old friends, the settling of old scores, and reflective poems on mortality and its influence on his craft.

Madras, India, steht im Impressum der knapp handtellergroßen Originalausgabe dieses Buches. Geschrieben wurde es im Frühjahr 1989 in Helsinki, als draußen noch Schnee lag und Robert Creeley wieder die \„im Frühlingstauwetter verschwindenden Spuren\“ einfielen, die die letzte Erinnerung an seinen Vater darstellen. Selten hat jemand unprätentiöser, ja bescheidener von seinem Leben erzählt - nicht weil es ereignislos gewesen wäre, sondern, im Gegenteil, weil er unter Ereignissen jene oftmals ganz unspektakulären Augenblicke versteht, in denen sich das Leben plötzlich konzentriert und eine unerwartete Wendung nimmt in Richtung auf jenen Kern der Existenz, den Creeley in seiner Dichtung immer wieder auf so unnachahmliche Weise zum Leuchten bringt. Verletzungen und Verlust können dort hinführen ebenso wie seltsame Zufälle oder die Liebe oder die Kunst. Immer aber ist es aufgehoben in der erdzugewandten und zugleich luftigen Sprache - Caliban und Ariel -, deren unvergleichlicher Meister Robert Creeley ist.
