Poets in Review

Autor Eric Greinke
en Limba Engleză Paperback – iul 2015
Widely published and internationally acclaimed poet Eric Greinke wrote reviews of his contemporaries in two periods, from 1972 to 1982 and from 2005 to 2015. The book is divided into two sections that reprint the best reviews from each of these periods. Most of the pieces in the first section were first published in Michigan's second-largest newspaper, The Grand Rapids Press. For many of the poets (ie: Charles Bukowski), Greinke wrote the first large newspaper reviews of their careers, thus promoting their work to a general audience. The reviews in the second section were originally published in a variety of literary publications, both online and in print. The selections illustrate the progression of Greinke's ideas about poetry over four decades and his perceptive insights into many of the works of the major American poets of the post-modern period.

Recenzii

"Greinke's clarity lets the reader in to what is being said, making it possible to apply, or at least, relate to these ruminations... Open-mindedness of poets should at least be equivalent to that of musicians and painters. It is imperative for the growth of the poetic art that poets become more tolerant and eclectic readers, in deed." -- Irene Koronas, Wilderness House Literary Review
"Readers often mistakenly believe that to be good, poetry must be written with exquisite, complex language, almost like the trills and other flourishes decorating Baroque music. However, as prize-winning poet, publisher, essayist, social worker and philosopher, Eric Greinke explains, in poetry, the enchanting, decorative quality of language represents ideas. This is Greinke at his best, advocating at the cutting edge of human growth in consciousness and doing it with poetry." -- Ann Wehrman, Poetry Now
"For decades poet, small press innovator, and critic Eric Greinke has been working in poetry and with poetry, that is to say writing, publishing it, and probably most importantly, questioning the aesthetics that makes up the craft of verse, free or no." -- Scott Whitaker, The Broadkill Review
"Eric Greinke is a rare example of a small press poet who has followed in the tradition of Sydney, Shelley and Pound by addressing the question of what poetry is all about. His ideas are clearly bound to his own practice, and yet he is capable of sufficient generalization to go right to the heart of literature. What are we doing and why? He has come up with his own answers based on a lifetime in the trenches of art, and his testimony is invaluable, if not the last word." -- William Seaton, Home Planet News
