Sobre este artículo
Newcastle, CA: Capra Press; The Blue Oak Press, 1977. First Paperback Edition. Paperback. Very Good +. Signed association copy. 314pp. Octavo [23 cm] White wraps printed in black and orange. With only minor soiling and shelfwear to the wraps. Inscribed by the poet on the title page in the year of publication: "For Karl Shapiro / with respect, as always / Christmas: 1977 / - Bill Hotchkiss."
The Maryland-born poet Karl Shapiro studied at the University of Virginia and John Hopkins University. He won a number of prominent poetry awards including the Pulitzer Prize, a Guggenheim fellowship, an Academy of Arts and Letters Grant, and the Contemporary Poetry Prize. He was poet laureate from 1946-1947. His work often contains elements of social criticism. Shapiro is well known for his vocal opposition to the 1948 decision of the Fellows in American Letters of the Library of Congress to award the Bollingen Prize in Poetry to Ezra Pound, who had engaged in wartime Pro-Fascist activities.
A nice association copy.
