Description:
Any new book by Pulitzer Prize winner Donald Justice is reason to celebrate. In Oblivion, Justice focuses his critical attention on 20th century literary matters. Engaging the battles of present trends and obsessions, he subtly explores the nature of obscurity, sincerity, style, memory, meter, free-verse, and music. His appreciations of past masters include discussions of Yvor Winters, Weldon Kees, William Carlos Williams, and Philip Larkin. Oblivion closes with generous excerpts from two of Justice's notebooks, providing a rare glimpse into the creative process of a writer who many critics consider to be a central conscience of the late 20th century.
