1992. Introduced by Richard Howard. A remarkable and representative selection from nine of the poet's sixteen verse collections. In his introduction, Howard reminds the listener that Hollander's are "some of the funniest, yet fondest; the most heartbreaking, yet delicious; the most daring, yet reverent; the cleverest, yet wisest; the most knowing, yet inquiring; the freshest, yet most commemorative; the most ancestral, yet most original; the most artful, yet most spirited, poems written in the English language in the last 40-odd years." Length: 72 min. |
