Audies (2003)
The dead citizens of Spoon River recite poems about their lives, their town, and their sorrows. Each poem is an epitaph, containing fragments of the town's history. Instantly successful upon its publication in 1915, "Spoon River Anthology" is an unconventional work that explores the gripping but often bleak truths about life in a small American town.

Notă biografică

As a young man, Edgar Lee Masters (1869-1950) rebelled against what he believed to be the hypocrisy of small-town life and went to Chicago, where he practiced law for thirty years. He published eleven books of verses, plays, and essays before beginning his masterpiece, Spoon River Anthology (1915). Later, Masters, Carl Sandburg, and Vachel Lindsay initiated a poetic renaissance in the Midwest, with Chicago as its center. John Hollander (1929-2013) was an acclaimed American poet and the Sterling Professor emeritus of English at Yale University. His books include Spectral Emanations: New and Selected Poems, Harp Lake, In Time and Place, and Blue Wine and Other Poems. Hollander was also the author of a number of critical works, including Rhyme's Reason: A Guide to English Verse. Ronald Primeau is Professor of English and Director of the MA in Humanities at Central Michigan University. He has published books on Edgar Lee Masters, Herbert W. Martin, the literature of the American highway, and the rhetoric of television. He has edited works on Masters, Paul Laurence Dunbar, and the dynamics of literary influence.

Recenzii

"Provides a wealth of information that frames specific historical, biographical, and autobiographical background for names, persons, places, and situations alluded to and invoked by the epitaphs in the Anthology. Hallwas brings to bear on the text and its history a detailed overview of previous scholarship, and a knowledge of Illinois history in particular, that will be invaluable for anyone not only writing on Masters, but working in American studies generally." --John Hollander, New Republic
"Hallwas's reading of Spoon River is undoubtedly the best and the one the poet intended. This presentation will reinstate [Spoon River Anthology] as one of the central works of the modern canon. The painstaking, critical and devoted introduction is indispensable for an understanding of this seminal work of poetry." --Karl Shapiro, Chicago Tribune
"The finest offering of Spoon River Anthology to date. Should be in all academic and public libraries."--Library Journal
