Ezra Pound: The Solitary VolcanoNeither an apology nor a condemnation, Mr. Tytell presents instead a meticulous exploration of the mind and vision of a man who galvanized a generation, challenged an entire literary-and world-establishment, and almost single-handedly brought about the twentieth-century revolution in poetry known as modernism. The best and most balanced critical biography of Ezra Pound. --Leon Edel |
