Donald Justice's work has received acclaim from nearly all of his fellow poets and peers. This book of critical prose - only the second by this Pulitzer Prize-winner - collects fourteen essays which examine such diverse topics as obscurity, sincerity, memory, meter and free verse. Providing counterpoint to the critical discussions are homages to past masters Yvor Winters, William Carlos Williams, Weldon Kees, and Philip Larkin.
Oblivion closes with generous excerpts from two of Justice's notebooks, providing a rate glimpse into his creative process.
