Robert Creeley
WORDS
All the poetry Mr. Creeley has written since
For Love.
The precision of phrase and image, the subtle ear for
idiom, the variations of breath in discourse are here
tuned to a high pitch, with a new ease and variety.
It
is his finest work.

John Hall Wheelock
DEAR MEN AND WOMEN:
New Poems
"John Hall Wheelock is one of the best poets in Eng–
lish. Like Hardy and Yeats he has done his best work
in old age. He writes that 'middle style' which circum–
vents fashion and is never out of fashion. I could list
twenty masterpieces. The reader can find them for
himself."-ALLAN TATE
