What is the relationship between the spaces we inhabit and the
spaces we create? Does living in a messy downtown New York City
apartment automatically translate to writing a messy New York
School poem? This volume addresses the 'environment' of the urban
apartment, illuminating the relationship between the structures of
New York City apartments and that of New York School poems. It
utilizes the lens of urban and spatial theory to widen the
possibilities afforded by New Critical and reader-response readings
of this postmodern American poetry. In drawing this connection
between consciousness and form, it draws on various senses of the
environment as informing influence, inviting avant-garde American
poetry to be reconsidered as uniquely organic in its responsiveness
to its surroundings. Focusing exclusively and comprehensively on
Second Generation New York School poetry, this is the first
book-length study to attend to the poetry of this postmodern
American movement, encouraging American poetry scholars to
resituate New York School poetry within larger critical narratives
of postmodern innovation.
