Résumé

Utter Vulnerability: Essays on the Poetry of John Wieners is the firstever book devoted exclusively to this extraordinary writer, a figure Allen Ginsberg once called "one of the greatest poets around". Featuring work by many of Wieners' most articulate and passionate contemporary exponents, the essays gathered here consider the life, styles, aesthetics, and artistic achievements of one of America's most original voices. From devoted close readings to socio-historical contextualisations, together our contributors explore a fascinating schedule of ideas and actualities of style, sexuality, queerness, mental illness, resilience, and commitment to continual literary (re)invention. As such, Utter Vulnerability represents a significant moment in the unfinished history of Wieners' critical reception. A landmark publication, this book provides a new platform for future discussion, debate, and appreciation.
