The longawaited second volume of A. David Moody's critically acclaimed threepart biography of Ezra Pound weaves together the illuminating story of his life, his achievements as a poet and a composer, and his oneman crusade for economic justice. The years 19211939 were the most productive of Pound's career. In 1920s Paris, he was among the leading figures of the avantgarde and, in that ambience, he composed an opera, made original contributions to the theory of harmony, and wrote the first thirty cantos of his great epic. Moody explores this creativity in fascinating detail, examining the environment that allowed for some of Pound's greatest work. This period also brought Pound's politics firmly into view and Moody is able to shed new light on his sympathy for Mussolini's Fascism, his invoking Confucian China as a model of responsible government, and his abiding commitment to the democratic values of the American Constitution.Pound is revealed as a great poet and a flawed idealist caught up in the turmoil of his darkening time and struggling, sometimes blindly and in error and selfcontradiction, to be a force for enlightenment.
