Description for What Does Not Change
Hardback. Num Pages: 176 pages. BIC Classification: DSR. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 243 x 164 x 15. Weight in Grams: 449.
Taking its title from the first line of Charles Olson's poem "The Kingfishers," this book provides a full-scale exegesis of that milestone poem in postwar American literature. Maud demonstrates that this poem is so crucial to understanding Olson's development that a study of it takes one into every aspect of Olson's early life and thought. This long-awaited explication (Guy Davenport announced its existence and anticipated its importance in 1985) removes what has been an obstacle in the path of further study of Olson.
