Robert Lowell by Steven Axelrod
Many previous studies of Lowell have accounted for radical differences in his work by examining the poet's private life, but this collection of essays attempts to reassess his poetry and to restimulate critical thinking about it by focusing on his texts to raise new questions about the work.
'Of all the books and collections devoted to Lowell's work, this is perhaps the strongest defense and one coming from a more than usually varied set of critical perspectives' Choice
'The collection of essays on Robert Lowell by Steven Gould Axelrod and Helen Deese attempts to shift the emphasis from Lowell's biography - his private life - back to his poetry … they do so with great success; the level of competence among the critics is high, and the essays appeal to a broad range of interests … an excellent volume.' The Sewanee Review
