Not after the establishment, but speaking straight ahead. This is how William Carlos Williams referred to his own forthrightness as well as his practice of using only American speech patterns in his poems. In Interviews with William Carlos Williams, Linda Wagner of the English Department, Michigan State University, has assembled Dr. Williamss most important public statements. The first section, entitled simply Interviews, reproduces in toto three indepth conversations, revealing Dr. Williamss humor, vitality, and Americanness, as he discusses his theories of poetic meter and diction, his opinions of such contemporaries as Pound and Eliot, and his view of his own role in shaping the course of modern American poetry. The second section, Dialogues, is arranged alphabetically by subject heading. Here are recorded the poets thoughts on topics from Art to Women. The third and final part of Interviews with William Carlos Williams, Memoirs and Miscellany, includes the touching account of a visit to the Williamses by artist Gael Turnbull in 1958. Also reprinted are two of Dr. Williamss best expositions of his own poetic techniques, The American Idiot and How to Writeessays which appeared in early New Directions anthologies but have been generally unavailable since. This valuable collection of comments for the record is annotated and includes an index.
