What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Far more than Eliot or Pound, Stevens wished passionately to be above all a poet of twentieth-century America and its American English; and he had the luck, as they did not, to write with increasing genius to the end of his life.” –Helen Vendler, The New York Times Book Review
