註釋

Poetry. Essays. Interviews. Letters. "He's good, isn't he!," commented Samuel Beckett, and little else need be said of Robert Lax. The ABCs of Robert Lax assembles a truly panoramic array of essays on Lax's writings; with extensive interviews, examples of his correspondence and key texts from his previously unpublished poems, prose and autobiographical reflections, this book provides both text and context. Written in relative isolation on the islands of Kalymnos and Patmos, Lax's poetry has been consistently championed by such writers as Thomas Merton, Mark Van Voren, Susan Howe and Denise Levertov, and by artists, musicians and filmmakers. "all things bade him, all things invited him to join" (from "Tractatus VI"); The ABCs of Robert Lax bids us, invites us into the vivid experimental world of a poet who is, in Jack Kerouac's words, "a Pilgrim in search of beautiful Innocence, writing lovingly, finding it, simply, in his own way."
