"[A] jaunty and readable account of artisitc friendship and
collaboration in Manhattan in the 1950s and early '60s...Lehman
tells this story with spirit." --The New York Times Book Review
"A highly readable and fittingly hybridized book: part cultural
history, part speculative essay, part literary criticism, part
biography...[Lehman] weaves narrative strands together with
pertinent and lucid appreciation of the poetry." --The New York
Observer
"Lehman skillfully waeves biographical sketches into his account of
the poets' work and friendships...Makes a vivid, substantial
constribution to our picture of New York in the '50s." --San
Francisco Chronicle
