Rezensionen

"...Beach's criticism is not only level-headed but astute...The result: a reading lesson that telescopes a major trend in postwar poetry. Even after reading Christopher Beach's The Cambridge Introductin to Twentieth-Century American Poetry we may not know precisely why the deer and the dachshund are one. But we will have received what may be the most clear and comprehensive course in Stevens, Eliot, Moore, et al that is available in book form." North Dakota Quarterly
