The music of the longer poems,
By
This review is from: On Extended Wings: Wallace Stevens' Longer Poems (Paperback)
For those who love the poetry of Wallace Stevens this work provides an extended exploration and revelation of his meanings and methods. Vendler speaks of the Stevens of three mood modes, the celebrant of vigorous life , the apathetic indifferent desolate soul, the mediating in between hesitant , tentative maker of his own careful music. Vendler notes that the Stevens often studied for his rare vocabulary is also the maker of innovations in syntax. She reads and explicates and provides understanding of one of the century's master poets. And she shows how in the longer poems the greatest of all Stevens' can be found.
