Title: Letter from Richard Eberhart to Louise Kertesz
Creator: Richard Eberhart
Description: Dated November 8th, 1980. A typewritten letter from Richard Eberhart to Louise Kertesz. Eberhart states that he is returning the second copy of Louise’s book, which he was sure she would be glad to have. Eberhart had sent it to Robert Pinsky, in hopes that he would review the book, but Pinsky replied that “he was not reviewing these days” and sent it back. Eberhart states that Louise’s book has been around the country, and that she is sorry about this turn of events, but he does’;t know what to do about it. Eberhart tells Louise to be patient, and that her book will be reviewed in due course, and that he thinks 1981 would be a likely year for this to happen. Eberhart states that it was a pleasure receiving the NY Quarterly 1980 Poetry Day Award at a $100 a plate banquet at the Hotel Pierre in New York on October 15th. Eberhart ends the letter by saying that he will be going again to U of Florida Gainesville for Spring Term. Last week, Eberhart had a fun time in Tulsa.
