Product Description

A Literary Biography of Robin Blaser: Mechanic of Splendor is the first major study illustrating Robin Blasers significance to North American poetry. The poet Robin Blaser (19252009) was an important participant in the Berkeley Renaissance of the 1950s and San Francisco poetry circles of the 1960s. The book illuminates Blasers distinctive responses to and relationships with familiar writers including Robert Duncan, Jack Spicer, and Charles Olson via their correspondence. Blaser contributed to the formation of the serial poem as a dominant mode in post-war New American poetry through his work and engagement with the poetry communities of the time. Offering a new perspective on a well-known and influential period in American poetry, Miriam Nichols combines the story of Blasers lifecoming from a mid-western conservative religious upbringing and his coming of age as a gay man in Berkeley, Boston, and San Franciscowith critical assessments of his major poems through unprecedented archival research. This literary biography presents Blasers poetry and poetics in the many contexts from which it came, ranging from the Berkeley Renaissance to the Vancouver scene; from surrealism to phenomenology; from the New American poetry to the Canadian postmodern; from the homoerotic to high theory. Throughout, Blasers voice is heard in the excitement of his early years in Berkeley and Boston and the seriousness of the later years where he was doing most of his living in his work.
