Description

The work of Shakespeare was Berryman's abiding passion and he devoted a lifetime to writing about it. His extensive writings on the subject have now been collected and edited by John Haffenden and reveal that Berryman's interest in the canon of Shakespeare's work was profound and far-reaching. John Berryman, one of America's most talented and influential modern poets, acquired a reputation as an innovator with a bold literary style. He was also an active, prolific, and perceptive critic whose own experience as a major poet served to his advantage. The New York Times Book Review described him as 'not only one of the most gifted Americans of his time, but also one of the most honorable and responsible.' This perceptive and engaging compilation will be enjoyed by all who share Berryman's passion for Shakespeare.
