Easier to Understand that You'd Think,
By
This review is from: Inner Voices: Selected Poems, 1963-2003 (Paperback)
Richard Howard used to come to Austin, Texas, and teach a poetry class out of the Communications Department. He also did some time, I understand, as the poetry editor of The New Yorker. He was a translator of French literature and did a translation of Breton's Nadja. Howard is a highly cultured man and writes highly cultured poetry that is intellectually stimulating and usually emotionally generous. I particularly liked his letter poems from Paris. The music of language is excellent in the poems. When I came upon a few lines in French I tried to get them, but found if I couldn't get the French, I could still understand the whole poem.
