The concise conversationalist,
By
This review is from: Life & Death (Paperback)
William Carlos Williams seems to me the poet closest to Creeley, or the one Creeley is closest to. Small lines of ordinary speech and life which occasionally come more alive and striking. Creeley it seems to me presents a kind of stream- of- consciousness of what he sees now. He is famous for his line- breaks and knowing how to stop the sound and sight in the right place. What he feels and believes about life and love is perhaps given in the fact that he was known as the most congenial conversationalist of poets, and also one most generous to others. He loved the word ' home' and wrote in his last years much about the process of 'aging' .
