Karmic Traces 1993-1999

"Not everyone will accept this diagnosis. After all, the university, for all of its ills, has had a hand in the global spread of important poems like "The Waste Land", and the current poetry glut is due in part to the rise of small presses, surely a good thing at a time when most trade houses wont even spit on a poets manuscript, let alone publish it. Still, everyone should be grateful that Weinberger makes and believes in this diagnosis, for it has driven him to write another collection of idiosyncratic and passionate essays about works that he believes should remain vital as they persist through the ages and travel from language to language. KARMIC TRACES is very much like those works, a book that all readers of poetry need even if it is one that some of them will ignore."Weinberger, Eliot is the author of 'Karmic Traces 1993-1999' with ISBN 9780811214568 and ISBN 0811214567.
