A definitive edition that introduces a major American poet to a new generation of readersAccording to Harold Bloom, 'The best of Alvin Feinman's poetry is as good as anything by a twentiethcentury American. His work achieves the greatness of the American sublime.' Yet, in part because he published so sparsely, Feinman remained littleread and largely unknown when he died in 2008. This definitive edition of Feinman's complete work, which includes fiftyseven previously published poems and thirtynine unpublished poems discovered among his manuscripts, introduces a new generation of readers to the lyrical intensity and philosophical ambition of this major American poet. Harold Bloom, a lifelong friend of Feinman, provides a preface in which he examines Feinman's work in the context of the strongest poets of his generationJohn Ashbery, James Merrill, and A. R. Ammonswhile the introduction by James Geary, who studied with Feinman at Bennington College, presents a biographical and critical sketch of this remarkable poet and teacher. Corrupted into Song restores Feinman's work to its rightful place alongside that of poets like Hart Crane and Wallace Stevens, with whom his poetry and poetics have so much in common.
