POETIC VOICES OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
"of an evening real as paint on canvas.
The kind that makes me ache to have the gift
for dusting off cliches:

The context (good morrow, haven't we met in this context
before?)
in which, squelch, a brush lifted a load
of pigment from the thick glass palette, and, concentrated, ""as
though he saw neither the work in hand nor the subject,
the painter began.
"--from "A Blue Shadow Painting"
"Other Flowers "brings together 165 unseen poems from James
Schuyler, one of the twentieth century's most acclaimed writers.
This carefully arranged edition presents a broad range of

real life, interpersonal history, nature, and pop culture to create
reverberant portraits of the everyday. To read these poems is to
rediscover the fresh clarity and grandeur of even the smallest
things. "Other Flowers "confirms Schuyler's status as one of the
most important figures in contemporary poetics.
