Reviews
Praise for Edward Sanders
Michael McClure:
“Sanders
[is] the poet-maestro of American history.”
Andrei Codrescu, National Public Radio:
“Sanders
has been an astonishing and fertile presence in our
cultural and political landscape. . . . But it is
Sanders' poetry, more than anything else he does,
that pulls together all the varied strands of his interests
to weave them into the body of one of our century's
most coherent poetics.”
American Book Review:
“One
does not know midcentury American literature if one
does not know Sanders.
Poetry Project Newsletter:
“In
Sanders' poetry we find . . . one of the clearest
and most necessary bodies of work still being written
today.”
Bloomsbury
Review:
“Like
Allen Ginsberg, Sanders knows how to capture and
upset an audience, and then deliver a message in
the language of our time.
Publishers Weekly:
“Sanders
is a fascinating character, the personification of
the counterculture movement.”
Choice Magazine:
“A
legendary figure who is at once an eccentric scholar-poet
in the tradition of Pound and Olson and an outrageous
rocker who has also written the most important book
on Charles Manson.”
