Description
-
An original, typewritten letter, dated September 11th, 1976. The letter is from Muriel Rukeyser to Louise Kertesz. Rukeyser stated that the questions that Louise sent on August 25th had arrived today, and she praises the depth of perception and the beauty of Louise’s work and Louise’s commitment to her project have convinced her to commit more to Louise’s book. Rukeyser stars that she will answer all of Louise;s questions,and that Louise;s readings are all accurate. Louise’s book was the first work that put together the meaning and Rukeyser’s poetry. Muriel hopes that Louise will come to New York soon, maybe even Christmas, if possible. Muriel also tells Louise that “The Gates”, from the book of the same name, is now in American Poetry Review. Muriel then gives Louise one, very imromat condition, that all passages of her manuscript mentioning her son and his birth be sent to him,and that none of the passages should be published without his consent. Muriel ends by saying the book seems extraordinary, and that it is not a thesis/
