With some changes in the contents-most notably the addition of
sixteen recently discovered poems-Last & Lost Poems is a
paperbound version of the highly praised 1979 Vanguard Press
publication. That book disclosed that between 1958 and 1966,
despite his disintegrating life, Delmore Schwartz was indeed
working and producing poems full of the special magic that had
propelled him early on into the literary limelight. Commenting on
it, Richard Wilbur hailed Last & Lost Poems as "a valuable
book... Schwartz sounds like no other voice in our time--rhapsodic
yet philosophic; self-conscious; self-forgetting; unguarded;
rejoicing or insisting on obligation to rejoice... Wonderfully free
and energetic." "This posthumous collection will perhaps help to
re-establish Delmore Schwartz as one of the major twentieth-century
American poets." -John Ashbery "Delmore's genius survives in the
sound of his words, in his hypnotizing lines." -Jonathan Galassi,
The New York Review of Books "The greatest man I ever met." -Lou
Reed
