Counter-revolution of the Word: The Conservative Attack on Modern Poetry, 1945-1960
Alan Filreis
During the Cold War an unlikely coalition of poets, editors, and politicians converged in an attempt to discredit - if not destroy - the American modernist avant-garde. In Counter-Revolution of the Word Alan Filreis narrates the story of this movement and assesses its effect on American poetry and poetics.
