Reviews"If more people read poetry, if it were more exportable and translatable, surely [Lowell's] poems would go far towards changing, or at least unsettling, minds made up against us. Somehow or other, by fair means or fowl, and in the middle of our worst century so far, we have produced a magnificent poet."--Elizabeth Bishop "The poems collected here reveal the grandeur and magnitude of Lowell's accomplishment."--James Atlas, The New Republic " Selected Poems provides the best possible entry into the imaginative universe of Robert Lowell. Those who have not followed [his] career volume by volume now have a chance to come to terms with one of our major poets."--Marjorie Perloff , The Washington Post Book World, "If more people read poetry, if it were more exportable and translatable, surely [Lowell's] poems would go far towards changing, or at least unsettling, minds made up against us.
