"The very existence of poetry should make us laugh. What is it all about? What is it for?"
--Kenneth Koch
“El subtítulo ‘Modelo para armar’ podría llevar a creer que las
diferentes partes del relato, separadas por blancos, se proponen como piezas permutables.”
I'm working on a letter (in my head) to the NYTBR in response Logan's review.
I think Crane is like Whitman in the way he contains stretches of very bad and very good poetry. & also like in Whitman in the way that his capaciousness, & his idealism or spiritual enthusiasm, overcomes his literary faults. & thes reason these elements are able to overcome the faults is because in both cases they are undergirded by sheer poetic talent working at a very high level.
Crane is one of those strange poets who will continue to be read because their contradictions are generative - new generations find new things in them.
you know that Peter Gabriel song --- games w/o frontiers, walls w/o tears ... she's so popular?
