Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
An acolyte of Whitman and Hart Crane, and companion and correspondent of W. H. Auden, Tennessee Williams, Charles Bukowski, Allen Ginsberg, Dylan Thomas, and James Baldwin, Norse has never received his due as one of Americas most innovative yet accessible poets. William Carlos Williams called Norse the best poet of your generation and pushed Norse toward his groundbreaking work in the American idiom. Norse was also of the generation that challenged taboo subject matter in American poetry; his poems of gay love have been recognized as among the first and best of their kind. Norses novella Beat Hotel described life with Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs, and Gregory Corso in a rundown Parisian hotel. This retrospective, I Am In the Hub of the Fiery Force, is a collection of almost seventy years of his poetry, much of it previously unpublished, all of it unavailable. It will be recognized as the culmination of one of Americas most vital lives in modern poetry.
