Bøger af Louis Zukofsky

Vi søgte en æstetik, vi kunne leve med, og vi søgte den gen­nem vores amerikanske rødder, vores eget land. Vi havde lært på Landbrugsskolen, at der blev skrevet poesi i vores egen tid, og at det ikke var nødvendigt at fordybe sig i akademisk viden for at skrive; vi behøvede ikke andet end de veje, vi rejste på.Fra A til Z er et fyldigt udvalg af den amerikanske maler og digter Mary Oppens selvbiografi om hendes liv sammen med digteren George Oppen samt digte og andre tekster af de fire vigtigste “objektivister”: digterne Lorine Niedecker, George Oppen, Charles Reznikoff og Louis Zukofsky, som hermed for første gang præsenteres på dansk i et dækkende historisk, politisk, socialt og kunstnerisk perspektiv.
