Description

PRC Newsletter and calendar, dated March 1982. Muriel Rukeyser will be the topic at “Talk About Poetry,” in a session led by Louise Kertesz. The newsletter says that Rukeyser’s poetry stands in contrast to many of her contemporaries, and many of her early poems celebrate her humanitarian spirit. It then goes into a short description of her career, and events that influenced her, such as the death of Otto Boch, an athlete turned soldier who was killed in the Spanish Civil War. The short article also covers her scathing critics, such as William Prichard, who called Rukeyser “...one of the great bores of American poetry.”
