The American poet Robert Lax belongs to the generation of Thomas
Merton, Beat poetry, Abstract Expressionism, and the compositions
of John Cage. Yet he stands out as this era's most intriguing
minimalist poet, gaining this reputation through a constant
questioning of the universe and our idea about it. His poetry
varies from fables and parables to clear-cut columns of words, from
his account of a day at the circus as a vision of creation to his
own insistent and mystical search for truth. 33 Poems presents the
quintessential gathering of Lax's work, including Sea & Sky and
The Circus of the Sun, "perhaps the greatest English-language poem
of this century" (The New York Times).
