Collected Stories 1947-1965

A collection of all 22 known published short stories by Philadelphia-born experimental novelist, poet, playwright, and screenwriter Gil Orlovitz (1918-1973). Written between 1947 and 1965, these pieces were originally published in such literary magazines as American Letters Press, Coastlines, Colorado Review, Discovery, INTRO, The Minnesota Review, The Miscellaneous Man, Mutiny, Quarterly Review of Literature, Sciamachy, 21st Century, Whetstone, and Who.

". . . one of the finest-the most versatile-poets now writing in English. Long before the San Francisco Renaissance exploded with public and police clamor and articles in Time, Orlovitz was writing with a Dionysian frenzy combined with perfect control of language that has been equaled by few, if any, of the Beats."

- Chad Walsh, Today's Poets: American and British Poetry since the 1930s (Scribner, 1964)
