TERROR AND DECORUM
by
Peter Viereck
"Peter Viereck has already taken his place as one of the few poets
worth reading closely. He is the first one in years who has said
something new •• He has the courage
to
be wild, and he brings a
true excitement through his lines. I find more hope in him than
in any other post·war poet."-KARL SHAPIRO
