University Of Texas Quot Quot
4,857 wordsRakosis Carl Rakosi Andrew Crozier Rakosi's career before the " Objectivist's" moment of 1931 needs to be read in terms of the literary situation as it presented itself to writers of his generation.

2,514 wordsJay Parini Perhaps the most haunting poem in Mountain Interval is " An Old Mans Winter Night, " a poem about an old man dying in the wintry climate of New England and alone: " All out-of-doors looked darkly in at him / Through the thin frost, almost in separate stars.
