By Mark Doty. University of Illiois Press, 1995Wallace Stevens Reads Wallace Stevens achieved international recognition as a master craftsman and was awarded the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Awards. Trained as a lawyer and employed as a insurance executive, Stevens' reputation has flourished since his death, and he is now considered one of America's most significant and enduring poets. His poem, marked by an unmistakable individuality, are exquisitely formed, full of lush figures and daring images. The listener will enjoy how Stevens wittily confuses all the arts in a luxuriance he called "the essential gaudiness of poetry." 47 mins. Caedmon: 1993.Sylvia Plath Reads Of the many American poets who reached their zenith in the last few decades, perhaps none looms so large as the legendary Sylvia Plath.
