Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SEARCHING FOR MR. STEVENS is a quest to understand the art and mind of the brilliant but enigmatic Wallace Stevens. An utterly unique figure in 20th century letters, and possibly the only American poet to have a Friends and Enemies Society named for him, Stevens wrote some of the most haunting verse in the English language— as well as some of the most maddeningly obscure. His paradoxical personal and professional life has come to loom almost as large as his poetic achievement, and this book gives ample attention to all these elements. Any lover of Stevens’ work will find in these poems fresh angles from which to explore this dazzling American Master.
